St Just in Penwith holds a specific geographical record: it's the most westerly town in mainland Britain, with only Cape Cornwall and a mile and a half of coastal path between it and the Atlantic.
A record built on location, not footfall
Roughly 8 miles west of Penzance, St Just sits closer to Land's End than any other town in the country. Its position made it remote even by Cornish standards, which is part of why it developed its own strong identity rather than growing into a larger market town.
Built on copper and tin, not confectionery
Through the 19th century St Just was one of the most important mining districts in Cornwall, worked for both copper and tin, with the parish population peaking at 9,290 at the 1861 census. The last mine in the district closed in 1996, and the town's 15th-century parish church and its Plain an Gwarry — a Cornish open-air playing place — are the landmarks that remain.
