The boundaries are : east, the Fowey District ; north, the North Coast District ; south, the English Channel from Pentewan to Port Navis on the Helford river ; west, the parish road branching from the Redruth-Helston road near Carnmenellis and running through Carn- kie to the Helston-Falmouth turnpike. After keeping to the turnpike as far as the Traveller's Inn the boundary follows a narrow lane leading to Eathorne, Trewoon, Bosvarren, and Port Navis. The Devonian rocks which occupy so large a portion of the North Coast District pass right across this to the coast between Pentewan and Mevagissey, taking in parts of the parishes of Ladock, St. Allen, St. Erme, Kenwyn, Probus, Grampound, Tregony and St. Ewe. From Probus and Tregony Church-towns, with the exception of a small patch of Devonian between Mevagissey and Gorran, and a little serpentine at the Nare Head, the rocks of the Roseland District are Lower Silurian. On the western side of Falmouth Harbour these rocks sweep from Restronguet Creek to Port Navis and again appear farther inland in the Gwennap and Chacewater District. The Carnmenellis granite mass occupies the parishes of Wendron, Stithians, Mabe, Budock, and parts of Gwennap, St. Gluvias, Mawnan, and Constantine. Around it, from the western end of Gwennap to Penryn, a narrow band of Cambrian rocks occur, which at Ponsanooth strikes out through the southern end of Perran-ar-worthal and makes up the whole of the parish of Feock and a goodly portion of Kea. The rivers of the district run in two opposite directions, emptying themselves in the several creeks of Falmouth Harbour. To the Fal belongs chief place. Rising on the Goss Moor, it takes an even course south by west, and after a flow of 19^- miles through a finely wooded and highly cultivated country pours its waters into the tidal creek at Ruanlanihorne. At a mile or so east of Grampound Road Station it is augmented by a stream which brings down the drainage from Hensbarrow Downs. Next in importance to the Fal is the Tre- sillian river, whose source is in the parish of St. Enoder. With its tributaries its principal drainage area is the parishes of Ladock, St. Erme, and Probus. The remaining streams all fall below 6 miles in length. The Allen rises at Ennis in St. Erme, and takes an almost due north to south direction.
