Launceston
Launceston occupies a strategic position in east Cornwall where the A30 trunk road crosses the Tamar Valley, making it the natural gateway into the county from Devon. The A388 from Callington and A395 from Liskeard converge here, whilst the town serves long-distance visitors as their first major Cornish stop and locals with quick runs to Tavistock or surrounding villages. With roughly 15 public fast chargers available, it's well-equipped for electric vehicle touring. The Norman castle keep from 1070 still towers over the town centre, a reminder of when this was Cornwall's administrative heart.
