Diana from St Austell says:
Keep our old Logo. We need. It we haven't got much going for us in Cornwall. Don't let what is good vanish please.
Steve from Newquay says:
I am a proud Devonian, who has worked for Cornwall County Council for the last 18 years. I think it is so sad that the powers that be, want to replace the miner and the chough emblem, with the awful badge that they propose. I'm proud to serve Cornwall, I love the place. But that awful badge with the awful costs that it will surely incur, would be better spent elsewhere.
L James from Penwith says:
It in no way expresses the historic past, relevant future or belief in a prosperous future for Cornwall. Mines, fishing, tourism and electronics are where we must be going.
Paul from Saltash says:
As a Cornishman I feel embarrassed by the majority of comments here. You don't like change you lot, do you? The new logo is cool and is attempting to drag Cornwall into the new millenium. If you don't 'get it', use your imagination. The age of steam is over, tin mining's gone welcome to the future; ONE Cornwall.
Mike from Plymouth says:
This new logo is fresh and vibrant and is just the symbol Cornwall requires in its quest be part of the 21st C.
John from Helston says:
I support the idea of a Unitary Authority. However the One Cornwall Implementation Executive should be sensitive to the pride Cornish people have in their history.
New ideas, for the sense of newness - like logos - are the quickest route to alienating those Cornish people who either support the idea of a Unitary Authority, or have a neutral attitude towards it.
One can only hope that at this stage the Unitary Implementation Executive will abandon this ill-thought out plan. The logo has achieved a lot in that it has made people aware of One Cornwall - now is the time to generate goodwill by burying it.
Jeremy from Plymouth says:
I think it is an excellent representation of the aims of the Cornish executive. To pave Cornwall with concrete and layer wave after wave of rules and restrictions designed for inner London on the inhabitants. Thus replacing the symbols which represent the heritage of the land we can relocate the entire peninsula as just another bland suburb of Slough. Well done I say for doing more than the recession to destroy Cornwall.
E Turner from London says:
National and local government are constantly freshening up their identities at the tax payers expense. I don't really care what logos they have, a new one just means more taxes or less services and that is unacceptable.
Richard says:
You paid how much for this...?
Bill James says:
It would be a great shame to loose the existing crest in any form. My mother was born in a family of eight in Bude. My passion for the most beautiful county in England has not wained in 38 years! The creating of a 'fresh new council' is not delivered by a 'new crest', but by strong leadership, empowerment, and a positive working culture. Try putting first things first.
Mike from Loughton says:
It stands for nothing, represents nothing. Couldn't they think of something emblematic of Cornish culture, countryside or wildlife. What about the Cornish Flag as a logo - it's easy to reproduce & instantly recognisable.
Liz from Newport Pagnell says:
I'm cornish by birth and up bringing so my home county is all the more precious to me, and this is TERRIBLE.
Gary from Leicester says:
Please explain to me how this piece of rubbish can possibly be: " bringing a contemporary modern feel to the best of Cornish tradition?"
Sandra from Windsor says:
How much did this cost to design??? It could be representing anything! Nothing speaks of Cornwall and its people nor of the beautiful countryside. A total waste of money.
John from Wimborne says:
Being an expat in Dorset we have a campaign for a flag for Dorset! It is a big debate and looks like a tin pot foreign junter's flag. Stick with tradition Kernow don't let the signs disappear for change sake be proud of what you still have. For some reason councils feel they have to change? What for? Probably to generate change for change sake! By the way I can't see that the new emblem would be recognised as Cornish except for the colours it appears to be leading to the depths of homogeneity and mediocraty. Kernow bis vikken.
Ian from North Lanarkshire says:
The most bland piece of artwork to represent part of our country.
Dave from Swansea says:
Absolutely terrible.
Pamela from Wadebridge says:
This logo has no relation to Cornwall whatsoever, why change what has been the signature of our county for generations. Let us try to keep something for the Cornish, this new logo is just a 'nothing' feature and could refer to anywhere in the world! It's a pity the council can't use their time and money for better purposes instead of thinking up useless logos!
Lee from Liskeard says:
At least our money is going to good use.
Linda from Bodmin says:
I think the old crest was sexist, did woman do nothing for Cornwall? It was outdated once we were miners and fishermen but no longer. I like the colours (the gold and black - our Cornish colours), the flame and the boldness, helps me see it.
It's good to see Cornwall looking toward the future, rather then its usual sticking with the past and arguing amongst ourselves.
Jean from Helston says:
Why could not a Chough be added as the new logo could represent anyone ?
What was wrong with the other one?
Alan from Bodmin says:
It's good to know that the comments of councillors and staff were taken into account. Is it only their Council? The logo and words are not the same style. Why change the old logo it is known worldwide.
Mark from Perranarworthal says:
Seems to represent the six District Councils going up in flames...
David from Truro says:
It clearly represents the hopes of the Cornish people going up in flames as the new authority is forced upon us despite most people being against it.
Elaine from St Agnes says:
The Welsh and Scots would not put up with this. KEEP THE CORNISH CREST. Protest, start a petition, lets stand-up for what we believe in before we loose everything....OGGY OGGY OGGY
J from Hampshire says:
I fail to see how this conveys a modern Cornish identity. Aside from a possible link in terms of the colours which some will associate with Cornwall, how on earth does this convey anything Cornish? Surely, if those who represent Cornwall had consulted the people who elected them into office rather than their colleagues and staff, they may have avoided what appears to be predominantly negative feedback.
Linda from Liskeard says:
Utter rubbish, my grandchildren could do a much better job than that, anyway there was nothing wrong with the other one, everyone knew it stood for Cornwall. This new one could be for anywhere in the world.
Uggs from Truro says:
My immediate thought is the awful colours would grace any early 1970's living room walls during the days of bad taste wall paper, nothing in the shape spells out Cornish history at all, they'd be better off with a begging bowl depicting Cornwall's political history. If this is the first good idea of the unifide council then i'm outta here!
Malcolm from Nelson, New Zealand says:
Do not like the proposed logo, could be from anywhere. The familiar Cornish crest, chough, miners, fisherman is well known and recognized, and recognized as the Cornish symbol / emblem, so why change what is already working well as a Cornish identity. This is not a new council, just a realignment.
Phil from Gorran Haven says:
Its quite nice, it picks up the colours of the Cornwall Rugby Shirt, however it is a shame that the choice was not given to the people of Cornwall, again another typical decision by the County Council without public consultation to the One Cornwall Process.
Ann from Liskeard says:
I can't believe that a council employee can defend the change of logo in the belief that it is not a costly exercise, how much letter head paper will have to be wasted, how many hours……? I hate to think of the hours that have already been lost on this exercise at the cost of other more essential work. In the current economic climate and us being told that council employees are over worked. I'm sure that the time, energy, resource could be put to better use for the county.
Richard from Perranporth says:
The new logo has no character, it does not identify Cornwall.
Shirley from Launceston says:
If this was the best out of 35, what were the other 34 like! I think it represents nothing to do with Cornwall, or anywhere else. Is the Council ashamed to have miners and fishermen as part of their heritage? It seems that crazy that we now have Welcome to Cornwall signs in both Cornish and English on the County borders, and yet a 'logo' which depicts nothing. The ironic thing is that probably in 30 years time, someone will re-design the logo (or whatever it is called then) and include a miner and fisherman and be praised for using the Cornish heritage.
Darren from Penzance says:
I think the County Council should go and get a refund. It looks rubbish and what does it represent? I would rather see the Cornish Crest its something to be proud of.
Graham from Redruth says:
Cornwall is in the midst of being turned into a massive theme park. All of our historical sites are being demolished to be replaced with modern sites of 'artistic excellence'. The so called 'regeneration of Camborne Pool and Redruth' is just another way of saying, 'lets knock the past down, forget it and build a road and a few factories to make the locals feel better. Then we will pay the locals as little as we can get away with, bump up the prices of houses in the area so only the higher paid city slickers can afford them as second or third homes and eventually build a holiday county".
Now to add insult to injury, they want to take away our County emblem that depicts the hard working people of the county and the 15 gold bezants that were paid to the king as a rate, and replace it with some 'modern' design that has no sense of belonging to the county. Even the gold is two tone. This design probably cost thousands of pounds to design, will take thousands more to replace any signs/logos that already exist, yet the County council cannot afford to repair roads. Where is the logic in all of this?
Jon from Truro says:
Good to see that the anomalous word 'county' has finally been dropped, however it's very disappointing that the Cornish language translation isn't included.
Andrew from Bodmin says:
This logo does not represent Cornwall at all and the old logo was fine and showed Cornwall what it is all about. This is totally the worst logo design as I think no effort went into this!
Patrick says:
It's fantastic and I love it. Much better than that boring crest we have at the moment.
Fred from Polzeath says:
If this logo is an example of what the new Unitary council has to offer, then Heaven help us. A total lack of appreciation of what the majority of Cornish people think, and a total waste of public money. The logo represents absolutely nothing, and I am ashamed of it. When are the councillors going to attempt to represent the views of the majority?
A.Smith from Saltash says:
Fishermen & Miners made this county, many died in the process. And this logo seeks to wipe them off the map
Sandra from Goonhavern says:
Black & gold is the only Cornish connection I can see. If the traditional crest is right for ceremonial purposes & to represent Cornwall then why isn't it right for the logo to represent Cornwall council?
Steve from Camborne says:
I just don't see the need to change the existing logo - just drop the word County.
At the end of the day the idea of the change is to stop people thinking the new council is not actually a takeover of the district councils. Couple of points: -
1. That is purely political speak, it is a takeover of the district councils in all but name, just because we are kidding ourselves its not, doesn't mean it isn't! (So if its a new body, who put David Whalley in charge of overseeing its creation?)
2. That argument is done with anyway, at the end of the day the new council is there to represent and manage the county, exactly the same as Cornwall County Council, so by rights there can be no objection to keeping the same logo - saves a whole shed load of money too!
I keep seeing this idea that the Council needs a new logo to promote its business - The Council is not a business, it needs to run itself in a more commercially aware manner, but it does not need fancy marketing - who's their competition again? And it will not run in a more commercially manner just because it has a new logo!
Those that seem to think we need to move with the times - what on earth are you talking about? While you should always look forward to the future, you should never forget where you came from - perhaps the Queen will change the Royal Standard next?
Peter from Truro says:
Whatever next! The people of Cornwall did not vote for a unitary authority and I'm sure the people of Cornwall would also not vote for this drastic change and do away with our heritage. I wonder how many of the councillors are TRUE Cornish? I'm sure also that the thousands of 'cousin jacks' around the world would not approve either!
Dale from Truro says:
This is no more than an update of the Lib Dem logo, same colours and means nothing to the people of Cornwall. Where's the colours to show the Sea, also the Chough, the bezants, and most important "One and All" This will cost £100k's in new stationary, vehicles being up dated, and signs.
Dave from Hayle says:
Total rubbish! Looks like a 'doodle' done in primary school. It only has relivence to Cornwall in the colour scheme, otherwise it is meaningless. Not something that ayone can take pride in!
Graham from St Blazey says:
I think the original logo is fine and there's no need for change. As a Cornishman in my sixties I feel let down by the thought of our old logo not being adequate. Please leave it alone.
Adrian from Penryn says:
I like it. Hints of a flaming torch, the traditional image of freedom around the world, also of Cornwall's age-old independence of mind, combining with the traditional colours of Cornish sportsmanship and identity. Well done Cornwall County Council!
Penny from Mawnan Smith says:
I agree with most contributors - this does not represent Cornwall or the Cornish in any way - and anyway, who, apart from us, know that black and gold are the Cornish colours - come on - you can do much better than this!
Sarah from Hayle says:
From a comment below, council employees pay council tax too! No money has been wasted as such, considering all thousand's of staff had a chance to comment on the staff forums.
This is the 21st Century and it's about time Cornwall caught up, although I think the logo could have shown a better representation of Cornwall, it is just a logo, for the use in terms of business. To everything that matters, the traditional Crest will still be used, and that is the heritage that nobody will forget.
Lindsay from Penryn says:
I would just like to point out to all those people who have made comments that the County Council logo does not actually include a miner or a fisherman, it is infact a chough standing on top of the Cornish shield. I appreciate the face that people are entitled to their opinions, but please at least get the facts correct first!
Anthony from Lostwithiel says:
The less said the better...
Tony from Bodmin says:
If this logo, minus the words, was taken up country and shown to members of the public. Would anybody be able to identify this as representing Cornwall?
Jason from Liskeard says:
I know the original shield showing the chough, the fisherman and the miner is the epitome of Cornish Tradition but unfortunately this logo was used as the County Council logo. The new Cornwall Council is about unity, progression, empowerment to communities and enabling people. It is the amalgamation of six districts and County into one Council for Cornwall. The original shield will remind people of the old County Council that will no longer exist. With this in mind a new logo was needed. Whether this new logo represents the future of Cornwall Council and Cornwall as a County is another question but hopefully it represents that change is in the air and a potential positive start to a new unified Cornwall is ahead.
Chris from Calstock says:
I'd like to see a Cornish Flag in there somewhere - please!
Christine from Newquay says:
Surely the point is that a council are not supposed to be trendy but need to be taken seriously. Although they thought a re-vamp was in order, why instead did they not try and incorporate elements from each of the existing councils logos. Add the text 'onen hag oll', which will then be a logo that everyone can identify with and be proud. It seems common sense to me but then I am not a councillor!
Martyn from Truro says:
I accept that a new 'clean', easy to replicate logo is needed to go on vehicles, uniforms et al, and appreciate that the crest will remain for more formal use. However, apart from the colour this doesn't represent anything to the Cornish and nothing at all that anyone without a Cornish connection would recognise.
Those in favour of the new logo have argued about the mines having closed and the fishing industry not being far behind. BUT our mining heriatge and it's impact across the globe has given our historic industrial landscape World Herritage Site status. Is it just me, or could a simple logo based on an old engine house not have been more obvious...
John from Tywardreath says:
The most obvious logo for me would have contained a silhouette of a Cornish engine house; something we all identify with in Cornwall.
Helen from Penzance says:
It's a terrible shame to lose the chough, particularly after the successful reintroduction of this beautiful bird. I think the new sign should have something which makes you immediately think of Cornwall when you look at it, which obviously the previous one had. What a lash up!
R.Breddy says:
The Logo looks cheap and nasty ,and does not do Cornwall any favours, why didn't they give to the school children as a competition. The councillors are not your masters they are paid servants, when the council elections come round vote those off that voted for it.
Chris from Sennen says:
Logo why? Nothing wrong with old one. They just like spending our money (Councils and MPs). Put the money to your Precious Lives appeal and do some good for the county.
James from Truro says:
I quite like the new logo although its hardly worthy of representing Cornwall as a 'brand'. Only the colour is representative, but what about when the logo is printed in black and white (which I'm sure it will be at some point on a letter or newspaper!)
It looks more like a sports club logo, I can see it now on the jersey of an ice hockey player or similar!
I understand the unitary council needs to establish itself, but this could have been done by retaining much of the original crest. Better still, let their good work do the talking rather than wasting cash on crayons.
David from Falmouth says:
The Councillor on Spotlight last night said 'a logo is very important'. It isn't, except for those who earn their living from producing them. Why oh why did they spend (big) money on a logo for goodness sake?
Damon says:
Shocking, at least there is competition for the shoddy Olympic logo. Cornwall is a proud county, proud of its mining, fishing, farming history and hopefully we will see a revival in some of these industries as raw materials cost more and more. Where are the fifteens? Maybe its time to vote in some new inspiring dynamic councillors
David from Helston says:
People say they prefer the old logo, but it's not relevant to the county anymore. If I could make a (somewhat) tongue in cheek observation, about how the logo could reflect the Cornwall of today. The Fisherman should be replace by a tourist, the Miner replaced by a second or holiday home and the Chough replaced by a seagull. In all seriousness though, I don't think people are upset that the logo is being replaced, it's just the new design they're offering up isn't that good.
Dave from Crediton says:
The new logo - check with those outside Cornwall and the answer will be 'what's that!' - and more to the point what has/will this design cost the council tax payer!
Joy from Truro says:
Horrible! Yet again Cornish identity is being denied. Even Europe recognises Cornwall as being different to England.
Richard from Paignton says:
Does not represent Cornwall or the Cornish people. The coat of arms for Cornwall with the miner and fisherman and chough are what Cornwall is all about, what has made Cornwall the place it is, it will continue to be regardless of the efforts of incomers and modernists hell bent on change for the sake of it, if not contained, will end up destroying the lifestyle and culture of Cornwall.
People forget what attracted them to an area in the first place and try to then change it to remind them of their roots.
Stephen from Newquay says:
What a waste of money and time. This is an erosion of our Cornish heritage of which we are all proud. Give us back the miner, the fisherman and the chough. Onen hag oll!
Carol from St Austell says:
I am a very traditional Cornish woman who believes that there is no reason why money has been spent to alter the logo. A very important decision like this should have been offered to the people of Cornwall to be voted on, if they so wished. I am 55 years of age and am not sure how long the logo has existed but I personally can not remember a different one. When something exists and works why change it?. All a complete waste of Tax Payers money and not what I would like my Council Tax to go towards. Would someone like to tell us what the actual cost of this pointless exercise has cost the us?
Council employee - name with held says:
I agree that a new logo is needed for a new council and I like the fact that the traditional Cornish colours of black and gold are used and although I like the design itself, it doesn't really represent Cornwall.
Having looked at the logos for other councils, it seems most have a crest, an animal or a plant/flower which gives some indication as to the county's heritage, such as the red rose that many know to be the 'Lancashire rose' for Lancashire County Council.
I work for the council and I think that at the very least, a survey should have been sent to all council workers so that we had the option to vote on our favourite design. Having asked around in my office of 30+ workers, only one had seen the other designs and had input into the final decision and that was due to them accidentally putting their name forward for what they thought was a discussion forum on the issue.
In modern times, we need a clean, modern logo rather than hanging on to an old logo for an old council, but I'd much rather see a basic chough design or gorse bush than the logo chosen.
Alan from Penzance says:
If the NEW council wanted something to represent the whole of Cornwall with a new logo, then surely our time honoured motto should have been incorporated. ONEN HAG OLL.
Jonathan from Saltash says:
No offence to the people who live there but I think it is more in keeping with somewhere like Milton Keynes than Cornwall. Apart from Black and Gold it has nothing to do with Cornwall.
Steve from the US says:
I agree that this is just another absurd waste of money for something that not even vaguely symbolises Cornwall! I used to work for the County Council and it's logo was brilliant, albeit there are few Fishermen, and fewer Miners now! Perhaps they should just replace the Miner and Fisherman with a Chalet cleaner and Ice Cream seller? That would be more fitting nowadays.
At least in the US we have strong National, State, County, and Town identities, and they all probably didn't cost as much as it took for these geniuses to come up with Don King's hair!
Roger from St Ives says:
Like a number of other people I cannot understand David Whalley's comment about this proposed new logo representing the elements of Cornish history at its very core. He can either see or knows something I don't. Whilst the design is attractive and creative it represents little to do with Cornwall and could be the symbol for anything. However, somewhat 'tongue in cheek', I wonder if the flames represent the fact that thanks to a disinterested British Government Cornwall has been going down in flames for many more years than I care to remember.
John from Falmouth says:
Cornwall has a clear and Cornish identity. It seems that the new council will not.
Keith in Bude says:
Certainly an improvement on the original version. Apparently the 6 strands represent the six regions (Districts) of Cornwall and the cross elements depict voting and democracy - obvious isn't it!
Jemma from Hayle says:
I am frankly frustrated by some of the comments below. The need for a new logo is evident, Cornwall Council is a new entity and not a merger of the Districts into the County Council and therefore needs a new identity.
I am Cornish born and bred and I like the new logo, it is clean, fluid and dynamic and reflects how Cornwall embraces diversity and has moved into the 21st Century. I respect and appreciate my heritage, but as a young Cornish person I believe change is needed and should be embraced to ensure the future success of the County that we all know and love.
David from Helston says:
Total and utter rubbish. This is not worthy of a graphic artist, a child would have done better. It looks more like a doodle of an onion. Cornwall is a County that deserves more than this.
Colin from Truro says:
Why change, the old logo was recognised by folks here and all around the world. We seem to be set on changing anything that is CORNISH!
Andy from Bugle says:
If Cornish council tax payers have to pay for this, then it should at least represent the Cornish. Why do we need expensive new logo's and re-branding? Just a smoke screen to deflect our attention away from other more serious issues maybe ? Any new logo should be in Cornish, and should represent the heritage of the county and its people.
Emily says:
It's a fairly inoffensive logo, but doesn't have as much to do with Cornwall as the old one. Don't think much of the colours either and it does remind me distinctly of the logo of the Borg from Star Trek!
Roger from Illogan says:
Well OK it could have been worse, I suppose we have to move with the times, however on first look it reminded me of several things amongst others the 'old' conservative party emblem, turn it sideways and it looks like swimming fish I think it is a pity that some Cornish words are not incorporated in the logo somewhere, this logo could represent anything really anywhere, it is not specific enough for Cornwall
Bob says:
I like it, it's much better than the London Olympics logo.
Simon from Perranporth says:
A three year old could do better.This is rubbish & just about sums up the disaster that awaits!
Jo from Fowey says:
I think it's beautiful - and just what a modern Cornwall needs - something bright, exciting and representative of a vibrant future, not just about the past. It's unbelievable that people are saying we should keep the old one - it's a totally new organisation and we couldn't keep the 'old one' without excluding lots of the other councils who are part of it. Well done Cornwall - long live Cornwall Council!
Anthony from Liskeard says
It's pointless, meaningless and in no way represents the proud heritage of our great county and its people. So all in all a perfect emblem for the new council I'd say!
Jan from Helston says:
As the new unitary authority will be a council for Cornwall it wll indeed be Cornwall County Council, thus there is no need for a new logo or any change of paperwork etc. The new logo has nothing to do with Cornwall, and as we do not yet have any elected unitary authority councillers, what authority does the present council have to decide on a new logo or anything else for that matter to do with the new council?
They say the new logo has cost nothing but if the new council does not like it and thousands have been spent printing new paperwork and lots of other things are we going to go through the whole prcedure again and waste more money?
Also as this has been done in house and taken six weeks obviously we have two councillers with nothing better to do so perhaps we should make sure they and their leader do not get elected to the new council that the majority of us do not want.
Lynda from Mullion says:
Will anybody remember in three years time that it is supposed to represent the coming together of the six councils? It looks like an emblem representing fire. What a shame - if it had to be changed why not have a badge as they called it that really represents our wonderful county.
J.Dyer from Camborne says:
This is pure unadulterated rubbish, There is no earthly need for change, you will discover this at the next elections.
Judith from St Columb says:
It looks like a bonfire!
Debbie from St Austell says:
Yet another political erosion of all that is meaningful in Cornwall - and further watering down of our say - where is our heritage?
Andrew from St Agnes says:
I too fail to see how this says 'Cornwall'. One of the council's arguments was that it was to show that the individual district councils have amalgamated, but we already know that without a dodgy logo. If they are so keen to show how everyone has joined together why drop the 'onen hag oll'?!
Paul from St Columb says:
I don't know if it represents a flame to throw new light on the future of Cornwall or perhaps it could be the dying embers of a burning bush. If after all the squabbling at the top we only get 80 or so councillors instead of the 130 that many sensible people think are necessary to keep this flame alive, then I fear the logo might just be the burning bush that will smoulder and go out.
Joanne from Truro says:
I am a proud Cornishwoman and there is nothing remotely Cornish about this logo. It looks like flames - symbolizing the Cornish heritage going up in flames perhaps?
The new council is supposedly a united Cornwall. In that case, why were the people of Cornwall not consulted?
If 'One Cornwall' wished to use a logo that would represent the ways in which the Cornish communities connect together, the original Cornish crest should have been used along with the motto 'One and All'.
Who designed this abomination? Not a Cornishman/woman that's for sure!
David from Redruth says:
This will be like the One Council Decision 'No Choice'.
Richard from Wardle says:
I think the new logo is absolutely dreadful and an insult to the people of Cornwall. The old logo - although it could be improved - at least encompassed most things that the county stands for. This new one is dull and uninspiring and surely representative of the out of touch Government, the directive for which it came.
Richard from Redruth says:
The new logo isn't traditional, some say it was a waste of time, others say a six year old could have made it.
These are exactly the kinds of comments from people that are reinforcing the idea that Cornwall is an old, out-of-date, poor, slow paced area with no future inhabited by dim witted farmers and hoteliers.
For Cornwall to have a prosperous future this stereotypical view needs to be changed, otherwise we are going to continue to trail behind the rest of modern Britain.
And yes, I am Cornish!
Nick from Cornwall says:
It's a logo, I really can't see what the fuss is about. For all those that say 'how will anybody know it represents Cornwall?', well I have never met anybody else that knows the old logo represents Cornwall, apart from those from Cornwall. As for wasting money, yeah it is a waste, there are a lot more people wasting money on less worthwhile projects than a logo at the moment.
Tony from Newquay says:
The fishing industry is decimated, the tin mining has closed and the chough had to be re-introduced after extinction. Times move on. Surely we need a seagull, a tourist and a surfer...
Sarah from Port Navas says:
I've been a Graphics student for 3 years, and I hate it! It doesn't reflect Cornwall and its people at all. If someone out of Cornwall were to see it, they wouldn't think: "Cornwall". They should stick to the Cornish Crest!
Nick from Callington says:
How can the Cornwall logo display the same colours of the Liberal Democrats, it should be neutral colours that do not reflect any political party.
Louise from The Lizard says:
It seems to me that perhaps some people have commented without listening to the coverage today. It's been made extremely clear that the design has not incurred cost as it's been done in-house, and also that the crest will be kept for ceremonial use, so the bezantes etc, aren't being 'got rid of'.
I think people also seem to have missed the point that this is about a NEW council. Keeping the CCC logo would be as appropriate as using one of the district council logos for the new council.
Things like this are hard because when it comes to design, everyone has an opinion, but I just think it's a shame that everyone is so intent on being so negative about this. It seems a real effort has been made to really do something a bit more this century. I'm sure other young people like me will like the new logo and what it represents. No more being stuck in the past please.
John from Callington says:
What is wrong with traditional values and history? The new logo may be modern but should be easily identified as Cornwall not somewhere Upcountry!
Laura from Par says:
I believe that the old logo was fine as it was! What has a load of random lines got to do with Corwall for goodness sake!
I'm only 13 and i know enough to know that the silly new logo was NOT designed by someone Cornish because a Cornish person would know that the old logo was perfect, so don't waste our money on something NOBODY likes.
Noel from St Austell says:
The old logo represented Cornwall and the Cornish. Can't think where the new one does either. Keep the original. Pity the cost has been lost though! No use asking for a referendum I suppose?
Wendy from Torpoint says:
What a waste of money - all the new letterheads, signage, and leaflets that will have to be printed...and for what? It saddens me that our money can be thrown away so flippantly. It's a good job that us Cornish residents can all afford it and there isn't a 'credit crunch' hitting our pockets already...
A designer (not involved with the design) from Plymouth says:
After looking at the logo and the comments which people are entitled to express I would say I like the design. Maybe it doesn't express the Cornish identity in a traditional fashion, but I would say that those criticising the designers in question are off the mark as they don't have an understanding of the design briefing process or what the 35 revisions look like. If the logo isn't well received then pass comments back to the people who commissioned the work. Making childish digs at the design team who put work into the logo isn't the way.
Bob from Truro says:
I wonder how much they paid for it? Are we to be told? I would have thought that a group of 6 to 8 year olds from any of our Cornish schools could have come up with something far more interesting, representative and inspiring.
Stuart from Camborne says:
Cornwall had an identity with the old logo. With the new one we won't. I wonder how many Cornish people worked on the new one.
Diane from St Austell says:
What a disgusting logo. All Cornish people have been brought up with our great logo and in this time when every thing is changing, surely we could keep at least one thing that has been constant in our lives
Marion from Truro says:
I think the new logo is too reminiscent of a certain political party, and I prefer the old one.
Liz from St Austell says:
I think the new emblem is a load of old rubbish and should be sent off to the recycle bin before it gets too known. What's wrong with the old one? It's Cornish, it's what we are!
A.Ballard from Wadebridge says:
As a Vice chair to a community association in Cornwall, I see NO connection at all with this logo. A disgusting waste of ratepayers money. Obviously we are all paying far too much community tax.
Chris from Truro says:
CCC says we cant reproduce the logo without permission but who would want to?
LP Barrett from Truro says:
This clearly shows a lack of respect for the heritage of Cornwall and its people. Our culture and history needs to be protected by the new Cornwall County Council, not dismissed.
Pete and Lin from Tintagel say:
What a load of rubbish- there was nothing whatsoever wrong with the old logo. I suppose, like so many other things, this is the work of 'incomers'. Has the council nothing better to spend its money on? If not, maybe a reduction in council tax is in order?
Stephen from Perranporth says:
Having just seen the new piece of kiddy's art as a logo for Cornwall I am absolutely incandescent!! This is yet another piece in the ploy to destroy the Celtic culture of Cornwall and subsume us as an English shire. Notice how the Cornish language has been eliminated as well as our 15 bezants. At 70 I can put up with most things but this is the ruddy limit.
Gail from Helston says:
I would like to say, that after having spent 28 years visiting Cornwall, my husband and I decided to move here on our retirement, because it has so much tradition and history and we believed it to be unspoilt.
I would like to say that I am a great believer in traditions, and for the new jumped up Council to change one of probably the oldest logos in this sad Island called Britain should be sacked.
I wonder how many of these Councilors are ' True Cornish'? They cannot be, otherwise they would keep the original logo, I may be new to Cornwall as a settler, but it has always felt like home to me, that is why I am here, and why I feel, (like so many native Cornish people), that tradition should be left alone.
The Chough has had a hard enough time returning to Cornwall, why should it be removed from its rightful place along with the Miner and Fisherman? After all they made Cornwall. The new logo is totally meaningless and bland.
I have worked in the print industry, and typesetting and printing is not cheap, after all what is wrong with the original artwork? Nothing. And it would have SAVED MONEY.
Hazelmary from Marazion says:
Having just seen the logo on BBC Spotlight 24.June, 2008, it beggars belief! Firstly it's awful and has nothing remotely to do with the Cornwall I know.
Logos are supposed to capture the subject they represent and that childish design says nothing about my county except that we are purile perhaps. It reminds me of the old road sign for a school or a bishop's mitre.
Secondly, why was it never tried out on any of us first, before a decision as vital as this was made? And why are they so cagey about the cost? As tax payers do we not have the right to demand that information?
Gerald from Goldsithney says:
Finally, Cornwall has become 'environmentally friendly', and developed FIRE without SMOKE! Trevithick would be proud of us all!
Tom from Porthleven says:
Mining is looking promising again in Cornwall and yet it doesn't feature on the new logo. The Chough is making a comeback and yet it doesn't feature on the new logo. The Cornish Language is also making a comeback and yet it doesn't feature on the new logo.
I like the idea of something new but this meaningless object is just rubbish and shows how out of touch the council are with what Cornish people want.
Mike from Exeter says:
As one new Council, surely the 'One & All' logo is more relevant than ever, and should be incorporated to make it instantly Cornish. The new one is great for a Cornish gas company, as it looks like a flame, setting fire to hundreds of years of tradition.
Mike from The Lizard says:
The new unitary authority does not exist yet. WE have not elected anyone to serve on it nor appointed any CEO or other civil servant as far as I am aware.
Who appointed David Whalley as Chair of the Implementation Executive anyway? David Whalley? Was the design of a new logo in his brief?
Is this an indication of the money wasting activity we can expect from the new authority? Another David Whalley extravagance?
What we need is the traditional Cornish Crest! It's a beautiful design and describes Cornwall brilliantly.
Noel from Helston says:
The basic idea is excellent but I feel that it would be improved with a light background St Piran's Cross and One and All in Cornish.
Peter from Truro says:
Yet again the heritage of Cornwall is vandalised without reference to those who live here and have to pay for such abominations. The existing logo tells a story and the history, however accurate, of the county. The story of the 15 Bezants that form the shield that is so recognisable will disappear. Please tell me what the new logo represents?
Steve from Truro says:
What a load of rubbish, how much did CCC pay for the design? The old logo or Crest represents Cornwall, and the new on is like some type of modern day tattoo. The people of Cornwall have had enough of this Council, the main reason for this is that they do not listen to the people who elected them to there positions they are currently in. The people voted not to have is unified Council but they did not take any notice. When this all ends in a mess, who has to foot the bill? Yes the people of Cornwall. But the people at the top of the Council can walk away with their big salaries and move from Cornwall. Most of us could never afford to do that.
Sarah from Rumford says:
I am sorry, but this might be a new One Cornwall, but it is still the same county council, it has just got rid of the district Councils. This is a county where staff have not had cost of living pay rises, but we can waste money on new logos. We cannot afford to keep homes open for people who are in need, but we can waste money on new logos. It is time the council got their priorities right, and stopped wasting tax payers money. This is supposed to save money, all I can see is that it is an excuse to charge the tax payer more.
Emma from Truro says:
Being a true Cornishwomen working for the Council, I am dismayed at the attack on our heritage, diversity, and the unigueness of the County, we have a heritage, and individualism that sets us apart from other parts of Britain.
It may be a new beginning for the Cornish Council, but it is still the same, all that has happened is it has swallowed the districts, but a new beginning, had the chance to show Cornwall's true character, but this has been ignored.
As an employee and Cornish I am truly saddened.
More to the point, how much more is this adding to the already expensive cost of One Cornwall.
Those that disagree with the new emblem should start a partition!
Anne from Kingsand says:
What was wrong with the old logo? A new, bigger Council will not be more efficient as is already proving by wasting our money on a new logo without questioning our need for one. We have got to know how much this collectively 'rebranding' of of everything, ie: vehicles, stationery, notice boards etc. is going to cost. Incidentally it will take years before it is recognised, after all we are talking about Cornwall, not some utility or political party! Democracy has a new meaning these days it seems.
Vivian from Probus says:
Carrick District Council at the full council meeting last Wednesday evening, voted in favour of the OLD Cornwall logo. The one with the fisherman and the miner on it. We were shown four to choose from, we added the old crest ourselves, the new rubbish is typical of the county thinking, change for change sake and to hell with the expense.
Ken from Hayle says:
With regards to the new Cornwall County Council logo it is stated that it was chosen from over 30 designs. If this was the best one to promote Cornwall heaven knows what the others were like. Carole Theobald said it was designed in house to keep costs down. How come it was never put out as a competition. The Cornish tax payer who is paying for this hasn't even been consulted on what they would like to see. Was the person who designed it and the people who sanctioned it, actually Cornish? If they are then they must have some idea that Cornish people are proud of their heritage and traditions. This new logo does nothing to represent this. As a Cornishman and proud of my roots I feel this is like a kick in the teeth.
Andy from Penzance says:
Interesting design. I think I saw something very like it on the side of a lorry in Plymouth, last summer. Still trying to work out what part of it relates to Cornwall!
James from Truro says:
How dare our councillors take away our logo, our history. Does the new logo represent our heritage going up in yellow and black flames? I hope it was paid for from their expenses and not our exhorbitant rates.
John from Fowey says:
If this insignificant and uninformative logo is typical of the new council we are in for big trouble - self promotion and gross financial waste! Bring back the chough, miner and fisherman.
Graham from Goldsithney says:
Just as everything else we identify as being uniquely Cornish is disappearing, this meaningless waste of £30-50000 shows that Cornwall Council neither understands or cares what it's people actually want. Was there consultation with anyone?
Catherine from Helston says:
This logo was obviously designed by someone who knows absolutely nothing at all about Cornwall or what it is to be Cornish. It's completely meaningless. They could at least have included some Kernewek text.
Graham from Hayle says:
I like it, BUT has anyone else noticed echoes of the Microsoft Windows logo...Is Bill Gates' new job to replace Mr. Whalley?
Jim from Camborne says:
If money is wasted on something like this so called logo how much money will the new council waste on building itself new council offices as soon as they are in power?
Pat from Truro says:
The old logo is historical and representing the people of Cornwall - not just Cornwall Council as in the new logo, and the cost is probably prohibitive.
Paul from Mevagissey says:
A lovely contemporary design for our NEW council, as a NEW business, with the SAME councillors...what changes!! It seems to me that the designer has as little connection to Cornwall as the logo has, and no doubt when we find out that the design was produced for a quarter of a million, by a company in the city ( that's not Truro !), we will all be angered at what a waste of money again.
Those council officers who dreamt up the idea of such a radical change, from our nationally known crest, based on history and what Cornwall stands for, must not know how much Cornish pride really matters.
My last comment, most of the population of Cornwall were not consulted on the single council, why do we expect to get consulted on a mere logo change ?
Christopher from Salcombe says:
What a waste of money, it should have been left alone! Where oh where is all the important history and heritage of Conwall being represented? Are the past importances of mining and fishing, which should be remembered and honoured, now to be forgotten? The Cornish Crest and chough logo, even though an incomplete emblem of Cornwall, needed no alteration, but if something had to be done then only a minimal style change surely would have been adequate. Writing as a true Cornishman with past mining connections worldwide, this new logo will not uphold the recognition and pride of Cornwall.
Tony from Cardinham says:
Why oh why do local councils seem to have a knack of wasting other people's money. No doubt consultants were paid a lot of money for this. God help us in 2009. What's wrong with the old logo?
Stefan from Wadebridge says:
Leave the design to the original.
Obviously those that have decided to change the design, are not Cornish folk and they haven't asked the Cornish for their votes on the change.
Cornwall is steeped in tradition and has a fine heritage, much envied by others. Therefore as proud Cornish folk, we should all stop the council's decision to change and replace those responsible with those that are true Cornish folk and have the best interests of our heritage and traditions at heart.
Bernie from Truro says:
I like the new logo, it is modern and clean looking, and will hopefully represent a new start to a new Council.
The present Council has been found lacking in many areas and particularly regarding the poll which they promised us regarding our opinion about a unified council.
I have just visited their websites (One Cornwall and Cornwall County Council) for another view of the new logo, I searched for both "logo" and "new logo" - no results found! Search made at 20.30 24 June 2008)
Not an entirely inspiring experience.
I hope the new Cornwall Council can take on board some of the better qualities of our existing District Councils.
T.E Lomas from Falmouth says:
This might be a completely new Council but I see you still have the same way of wasting ratepayers money. Cornish men and women died for the old emblem.
John from Truro says:
If someone gave you that logo - minus the text - would you know its Cornwall?
Sheila from Bodmin says:
I keep looking at this design and fail to see Kernow in there anywhere! Why is our council wasting money on a new logo? Even if it only cost £50, our council should not be wasting our money, the county can't afford it!
Mary from Mullion says:
Being very traditional I thought that I would hate it when I heard about it - but actually I think that it looks really good.
Peter from East Portholland says:
This logo signifies the council very well. It looks like a bunch of money grabbing hands.
Brian and Ceinwen from Camborne say:
We would like to know how much of OUR council tax money was spent on this logo and how many of the councillors actually have a Cornish background, do they just want to run Cornwall without the tradition of the Cornish in their decision making. Would they dare have a referendum about this logo.
Rene from Truro says:
Which part of the country did the designers come from? Not from Cornwall I bet. They seem to have forgotten all the things that Cornwall is best known for. I'm from London but respect the Cornish ways, that's the reason I live here. Has no baring on Cornwall, looks like the Olympic Games logo. Bring back the old logo.
John and Margaret from Launceston say:
This is the Council's choice and as usual what happened to the peoples choice? If we weren't told what this emblem was meant to represent, who on earth would guess? It spells out to me " A head dress for Robert Mugabe"
Elaine from St Agnes says:
I am Cornish Born an Bread My Darlings an Proper Proud of the CORNISH COAT OF ARMS. Now We Cornish Don't Much Like Change you see but I have been trying to get that 'DONKEY KING HAIRSTYLE' all day me 'ansomes but still can't get me head round it. MUCH PREFER THE OLDE CORNISH COAT OF ARMS (but then everyone to their own hairstyle.(ONE AND ALL)
Rosalie from California says:
I spent a week visiting throughout Cornwall last summer and enjoyed it greatly. I now wear a Piran Cross with the name Kernow on a jacket and enjoy doing so. I have no idea why the council would decide to spend money on putting this logo on all their belongings. I'm guessing when that is accomplished they will change logos again.
Fay from Camborne says:
A very appropriate logo. The pledge of being open and transparant in the decision making process? Another tick in the box of consulatation with the public and staff.
Jack from Camborne says:
Looks like someone has tried to draw some pasty crimps...
Steve from Camborne says:
I can't see what it is to do with Cornwall.
Firstly the Council is not a 'New Business', it is a new Authority to run Cornwall Locally - surely its crest should be representative of what it runs!
Secondly, when that logo appears on a street sign next to your road name what is anybody going to think. In Kerrier all replacement road name signs are Bi Lingual with the district crest - Which aptly represents the area - the new symbol is just meaningless corporate branding.
Chris from Liskeard says:
Given that the unitary council was foisted on the County despite most people voting against it, do we actually have any say in which logo they use? For me it's a bit like all those samey European logos such as you see when you travel through France; until you see the name of the place you're never sure where you've been. It certainly doesn't make you immediately think 'Cornwall'. It looks more like a logo for a gas/fuel company. If they had to spend OUR money could they not have spent it on something more useful? Something to benefit the county and those who live here.
Michael from Lanivet says:
As it is a NEW Council, a NEW logo was needed. The proposed logo is ok at best but as many have said, it doesn't strike me as 'Cornish at the core'. I don't think many would have complaints with a logo based around the Piran cross. At least people could identify with it.
Elaine from near Redruth says:
It's a pleasant enough design but completely meaningless for Cornwall. David Whalley says that "it has elements of Cornish history at its very core". Perhaps he would like to explain because I don't get it. Give the people of Cornwall a choice. Personally I don't think there was anything wrong with the old logo, why change for change sake
Oliver from Port Isaac says:
Just as the Choughs come back to Cornwall, the new council axes them from their rightful place of honour on the logo.
Silly logos like this wouldn't bother people so much if it wasn't the case that they represent us whether we like it or not!
On the other hand I always felt that the crest with the miner, fisherman, and chough, was a bit too good to use for Cornwall County Council. Perhaps we should use the silly new 'flame' for the council and associated political purposes, and promote the crest to represent US (the Cornish).
Katie from Wadebridge says:
I like it. It is a new Council and therefore important that we have a modern and new logo. The old logo is boring and should go.
Sean from Truro says:
I have been listening to Lawrence and I must say that Cornwall's view as a county will be that it is ok. But we are proud of where we are from. We are proud of our history and this logo represents nothing about us and our county and why we are so different from anywhere else in this country. We do not want to lose our image of who we are. Our fisherman make us proud, our miners make us proud. The logo fails to represent what Cornwall is famous for. However, it is modern and dynamic which is great, It has been designed here, which is fantastic. These are all good points but it is not unique to Cornwall.
Trudy from St Austell says:
Its dull and does not instantly say Cornwall or anything Cornish. Could just as easily be a coal or gas supplier. We should be starting anew with something bold and exciting.
Christian from Truro says:
People don't understand that Cornwall council is a new business...So there is no relevance of the old logo? What are they on about? Amazing the creativity of some people? Do they want a pasty, map of Cornwall and a tin mine? Is that all Cornwall is about? It's not a logo for tourism. It's purely a presence and icon for people of Cornwall to associate with their council...
Jan from Lostwithiel says:
I like the design, but now that we have an agreed standard written form for Cornish, why does it not also say Konsel Kernow?
Derek from St Tudy says:
Remove the word Cornwall and nobody would know what it is meant to repesent. Black and gold plus another colour, why. The first thing I thought was bulls horns possibly a viking helmet.
Eric from Newlyn says:
This logo will win the Turner Prize. But it does not represent the Cornwall that I have been brought up in and love.
B.A Gulson from Mousehole says:
I THINK THE LOGO IS QUITE EYECATCHING BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE WORDING IN CORNISH AS WELL AS ENGLISH.
Debbie from Truro says:
The old logo wasn't used because this is supposed to be a 'new' Council! Calling it a 'new' Council is supposed to reassure employees that we aren't 'just being taken over'.
The new logo is alright - I like the use of black and gold, it's just a bit un-inspiring! I do agree it looks very modern and will hopefully dispel the image of Councils (and Council workers) being old and fuddy-duddy!
Catherine from St Stephen says:
A waste of money, even in-house it has cost 'people time and salary'. One Cornwall was brought in against the wishes of the people and will continue to be imposed upon people.
Neale from Wadebridge says:
What a meaningless 'logo' as it does not convey anything except how cheaply it was done. The Cornish crest is far superior and means something to all inhabitants.
Roger from Looe says:
Why do we need a new 'crest' and a ceremonial shield? hat's wrong with the status quo and saving the money involved with designing the crest and implementing it throughout the new authority? Noting that the unitary authority was sold on the savings it would produce.
George from Truro says:
I think people are missing the point! There is no such thing as the 'old logo'. The unitary authority is new. Some people just love to rant! Does your research accept change, progression and the future. If you have nothing good to say? Say nothing at all!
John from St Agnes says:
Has no relevance to traditional Cornish heritage. A waste of council tax payers money. Why change?
Lynette from Redruth says:
Bright, clear and positive looking but perhaps lacking something Cornish (a cough or a flag.)
Jason from Liskeard says:
I understand some of the comments here but we need to remember that 'Cornwall Council' is a NEW council representing the County Council & the six districts as one and therefore the existing County Council Logo would not represent the new council in the right way.
Emily from Helston says:
I presume this was designed on a Friday afternoon...after going down the pub! Mind you it is rather apt as it looks like a piece of cloth coming apart at the seams
Alf says:
I find the new logo, uninspiring & pathetic
Gavin from Perranwell says:
How many more of our National and Local traditions and emblems are to be desicrated by members of authorities. How many 'true' Cornishmen would accept this abomination?
Sue from Looe says:
Meaningless & uninspiring. Cornwall deserves something better than this. It has nothing to do with Cornwall & no doubt has cost us all of lot of money for a design has nothing of the spirit of Kernow.
Neil from St Austell says:
What a load of tripe, where is the Cornish history and what has that symbol got to do with Cornwall? Also my bills are rising and you're spending money on trialing over 35 different designs, this just takes the mick there was nothing wrong with the old logo
Craig from Carbis Bay says:
Things must move forward but we shouldn't loose our roots. The reasons (industries) which made our county will be lost.
Greg from Hayle says:
I like it
Wurzel from London says:
Have seen worse. What is all the fuss about
Vivien from Troon says:
I like the logo, but it does not show Cornwall other than the words. Why did no one think to wrap the 'flames' round an outline map of Cornwall. Why did no one think to keep the old one, which seemed to unite all parts of Cornwall.
Tim from Lostwithiel says:
In house design you say, which primary school was it?
Clifford from Bude says:
What a waste of our money. Please try and find out the exact cost to produce this logo and display the logo on their vans etc, paperwork etc.
Brian from Falmouth says:
THE ORIGINAL CORNISH LOGO IS ALRIGHT - IF IT IS ALRIGHT FOR CEREMONIAL PURPOSES - IT IS GOOD ENOUGH FOR THE NEW COUNCIL - ANOTHER ONE OF MR WHALLEY & CO'S MONEY WASTING IDEAS
Mike from St Austell says:
Very unimaginitive, other than being black and gold, not sure what it means? However, I am far more interested to see how this new council manages the county and districts.
E.Allford from St Ives says:
Why do we need a new one what was wrong with the old one we have to pay for this for a council which most in cornwall didn't want but that is this how democracy now works
Angus from Perranporth says:
This is a load of rubbish How would anyone know it was Cornwall. The old logo is self explanitory. It is also a waste of money.
Donna from Helston says:
The new logo is lively and modern but with a Cornish twist. Just what we want for the new council for Cornwall.
Kevan from Mylor Bridge says:
As usual the council has wasted time and money on this, what was wrong with the old logo, which showed what Cornwall was all about, but sill who are we to say any thing as we will have no say in the matter. Why have two logos, to me it looks like a rather poorly made basket and I cannot see, (other than black and gold) what connection it has with Cornwall. Obviously the staff at County Council have very active imaginations.
Bob from Callington says:
TWADDLE !! JUST HOW MUCH OF TAXPAYERS MONEY GOT WASTED BY THE SELF PROMOTING MONEY WASTING COUNCIL ON THIS RUBBISH.
Karen from Liskeard says:
Love the logo, but needs both Kernewek and English wording 'Konsel Kernow'. The logo may not have an instant meaning, but that is its beauty, it will come to mean something to each person in Cornwall, regardless of their background, it is all inclusive. As long as the new council is as good as it is claimed that it will be, this logo will come to represent all that is good about Kernow/Cornwall.
Jennifer from Praze says:
I really like the design, it is contemporary, it shows energy and looks dynamic - it is how I would want to see Cornwall represented. I also think it is great that it was designed internally and not by some expensive design company - and showcases internal Cornish talent.
Jackie from Bodmin says:
Without the legend 'Cornwall Council' next to it the logo could represent anything. If the council are still going to use the traditional crest for 'ceremonial purposes and to represent Cornwall' why change it? I'm definitely not impressed.
Ken from St Austell says:
Looks bright, exciting and dynamic. Will give the council employees something more 'modern' and bright/cheerful to wear on the corporate work wear. A great deal more vibrant than what we see now...
John from St Just says:
I wonder how much this has cost us? Lots of money for a few minutes doodling with a crayon I expect!
Gordon from Helston says:
This is does not and should not represent Cornwall in anyway what so ever! This logo is meaningless. At least with the present logo we have pride in it and history which it represents. The people in Cornwall have pride in the Cornish Crest it is recognised world wide.
Adam from Kilkhampton says:
This is ridiculous, the old logo was just perfect, what will you be wasting our money on next I wonder?
