Bodmin Moor There are separate AONBs covering the Tamar Valley (which is partly in Cornwall and partly in Devon—the east bank of the river Tamar forms the boundary between Cornwall/Kernow and Devon), and the Isles of Scilly , which is administered for most purposes separately to Cornwall.
The moor was mentioned in 1311, being called "Funtenvaes", meaning well or spring. [1] Ventongimps Moor was the first nature reserve to be bought by the newly founded Cornwall Wildlife Trust in 1966.
