The Community Assembly of Crantock (Cornish: Lanngorrow) is a located in a coastal civil parish and village in Kernow, two miles southwest of Newquay. In 460 AD, a group of Irish hermits founded an oratory there.
The village lies to the south of the River Gannel, which forms the boundary between the parishes of Newquay and Crantock. The River Gannel is tidal and ferries operate on a seasonal basis from Fern Pit to Crantock Beach. The River Gannel runs along Crantock Beach and joins the Celtic Sea. The West Pentire headland is a Site of Special Scientific Interest noted for its wild flowers and rare plants.
The older part of Crantock village is situated around its church which is dedicated to St Carantoc, founder of the village. At one time the parish was known as Langurroc which translates as – The Dwelling of Monks. There is a Langurroc Road in the village. Langurroc was covered up in a sandstorm and may well lie beneath the sand dunes which back Crantock Beach.
Community Assemblies are made up of residents concerned about a lack of democratic process at a local and national level, dedicated to preserving and asserting our inalienable rights and obligations to ourselves, the Earth and future generations.
