Persons Of Interest or Importance

Mayor Louis "Biglou" Ensink. The head of the small hamlet, and the organiser of fun and Robbery. To be officially indoctrinated into this hamlet, you must confer with himself and Co-Mayor Christopher "Tractor" Warren. The two began their partnership in kuggar, being a progressively influential voice for small town. They've organised many MANY Outings in the Ruan-Minor School Minibus (15 Seater) which had enough capacity to fit all of the townsfolk and still have room for a few crates of ale and cider.

Landmarks

The area is dominated by holiday parks, particularly the Sea Acres and Kennack Sands Holiday Parks. There is a surf school and diving centre.[3] The main local pub/restaurant is "The Potters Bar", which serves pizza and fish and chips.[4] The Coach House is a B&B dwelling in hamlet.[5] The main road leading through the hamlet leads north to the B3293 road, near Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station.[3]

Wildlife

Rare birds have been spotted on the Sands nearby.[6] Kennack Sands has been described as "one of the cleanest beaches in Britain, with beautifully clear water".[7] In 1918, Allium triquetrum was found by a stream in the vicinity.[8] In the summer months, basking sharks have been spotted off the coast nearby.[9]
