"Fore Street" is a name often used for the main street of a town or village. Usage is almost entirely confined to the south west of England but it does also occur in some other parts of the country. There is also a Fore Street in Portland, Maine, United States, presumably named by colonists from SW England. The prevalence of streets named "Fore Street" in Cornwall is due to a survival from the Cornish language -"Forth" = "Street". There are over seventy "Fore Streets" in Cornwall and about seventy five in Devon. The name is to equivalent to the "High Street" of SE England and the "Main Street" of the rest of the country. ==Some Cornish towns and villages with a "Fore Street"== *Albaston *Ashton, Helston *Barripper, Camborne *Beacon, Camborne *Bodmin *Boscastle *Bugle, St Austell *Callington *Calstock *Camborne *Camelford *Cargreen *Carharrack, Redruth *Chacewater, Truro *Constantine, Falmouth *Copperhouse, Hayle *East Looe *Fowey *Golant, Fowey *Goldsithney, Penzance *Grampound Road, Truro *Grampound, Truro *Gunnislake *Herodsfoot *Kingsand *Lelant, St Ives *Lerryn *Liskeard *Lostwithiel *Madron, Penzance *Marazion *Mevagissey, St Austell *Millbrook *Mount Hawke *Mousehole, Penzance *Nanpean *Newlyn, Penzance *Newquay *Penponds, Camborne *Pensilva *Polgooth *Polperro *Polruan *Pool, Redruth *Port Isaac *Porthleven, Helston *Praze-an-Beeble, Camborne *Probus *Redruth *Roche, St Austell *Saltash *St Austell *St Blazey,Par *St Cleer *St Columb *St Day, Redruth *St Dennis, St Austell *St Erth, Hayle *St Germans *St Ives *St Just, Penzance *St Mabyn, Bodmin *St Stephen *St Teath, Bodmin *Sticker *Stratton, Bude *Tintagel *Torpoint *Tregony, Truro *Troon, Camborne *Tywardreath,Par *West Looe 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fore Street」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
