Par
A village and fishing port at the edge of Par Sands between St Austell and Fowey and half a mile from Twywardreath village and nearby to the hamlet of Polmear, at the bottom of Polmear Hill.
Par (Cornish: An Porth) is in Cornwall.
In days gone by when there were higher sea levels and less silting up, Polmear had a small quay and a lime kiln. Now the settlement is approx 400m from the main beach car park on a small river which once may have been a ford at low tide.

gollark: Did you also make a storage scanner? The pack devs seem to have deliberately made it slightly more accessible. It's sort of a worse AE2 terminal with a very good remote option.
gollark: It's surprisingly cheap.
gollark: The pink slime is too annoying when I can just throw the vast* power of the GTech™ primary generator at the problem.
gollark: I replicate all mine.
gollark: I should probably actually make AE2 or other autocrafting rather than relying on extremely manual processes.
