Newlyn
Newlyn ((コーンウォール語:Lulyn): Lu 'fleet', Lynn/Lydn 'pool') is a seaside town and fishing port in southwest Cornwall, England.〔Ordnance Survey: Landranger map sheet 203 ''Land's End'' ISBN 978-0-319-23148-7〕
Newlyn lies on the shore of mounts bay and forms a conurbation with the neighbouring town of Penzance and is part of Penzance civil parish, and is the southernmost town on the British mainland (though not the most southerly settlement). The principal industry in Newlyn is fishing, although there are also a wide variety of yachts and pleasure boats, in the harbour, as Newlyn is becoming an increasingly popular holiday destination, with many pubs and restaurants. Although the parish is now listed under Penzance there is an electoral ward in separate existence called Newlyn and Mousehole. The population at the 2011 census was 4,432.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ward population 2011 census )〕
==Toponymy==
The settlement is recorded as ''Nulyn'' in 1279 and as ''Lulyn'' in 1290, and the name is thought to be derived from the Cornish for ''"pool for a fleet of boats"'' which is thought to refer to the shallows offshore also called ''Gwavas Lake'', traditionally the principal mooring for the fishing fleet in the area.
