contacted by Mr Musson’s granddaughter. With information scarce about the Little Midland


Cycle Car, he was hoping that new cuttings would be unearthed. Much to his delight, he not only received fresh information, but found out that the car's builder, Mr William Cunningham, has a daughter living in the

Enjoy the sheltered Towan Beach with its paddling pool, rock pools and caves waiting to be explored. The little harbour still retains its character and is a scene of changing activity and interest. Sub-tropical plants bloom in profusion around the resort and in Trenance gardens where there is an amusement park and zoo to complement Newquay's many other attractions.
