River Fal

The River Fal ((コーンウォール語:Dowr Fala)) flows through Cornwall, England, rising at Pentevale on Goss Moor (between St. Columb and Roche) and reaching the English Channel at Falmouth. On or near the banks of the Fal are the castles of Pendennis and St Mawes as well as Trelissick Garden. The River Fal separates the Roseland peninsula from the rest of Cornwall. Like most of its kind on the south coast of Cornwall and Devon, the Fal estuary is a classic ria, or drowned river valley. The Fal estuary from Tregony to the Truro River was originally called Hafaraell ((コーンウォール語:Havarel), meaning ''fallow place'').
==Toponymy==
The origin and meaning of the name of the river are unknown. The earliest occurrences of the name are in documents of AD 969 and 1049. Falmouth, a town which was named Smithwick until the 17th century, is named after the River Fal.〔Ekwall, E. (1940) ''The Concise Dictionary of English Place-names''; 2nd ed. Oxford: Clarendon Press; p. 165〕 The word ''Fal'' in Cornish may refer to a prince, or on the other hand to a spade or shovel.〔Robert Williams, ed., (''Lexicon cornu-britannicum: a dictionary of the ancient Celtic language of Cornwall'' ) (London, 1865).〕
