Discover the incredible trivia and hidden stories of one of Britain's best loved destinations, Devon and Cornwall. Did you know: The world's first lift was installed at the Tresavean Mine in Cornwall in 1842. The oldest working lighthouse in England can be found in Devon. The first transatlantic radio signals were sent from Cornwall. With more than 700 miles of coastline, two national parks and a never-ending debate over the correct way to prepare a cream tea, Devon and Cornwall are two of the best loved counties in Britain.
