In 1995, the communities of Cornwall, Eliot River, and North River amalgamated to form the Town of Cornwall. The current population of the town is 6,574, an increase of 22.9% since 2016.
I took the opportunity to explore Cornwall last week, and this is what I found:
1. Selfie with the town's welcome sign: I took a picture with the town’s sign on Route 27. There is also a town sign off the busy Route 1 heading from Charlottetown, but I didn't feel like risking my life for that shot.
2. Visitor's Centre: There are no Visitors Centres in Cornwall, but you can find one in nearby Charlottetown. The Cornwall Town Hall has lots of information on the Town of you're curious.
3. Museum or heritage centre: Cornwall does not have a museum, although a helpful fellow at the Town Hall was able to provide me some information on the town’s history.

6. Locally produced spirit: Cornwall is home to one of PEI's newest nano-breweries, Village Green Brewery. I stopped in to pick up a Cream Ale and a Spruce Honey Saison. Delicious!
8. Town swag: I happened to be in Cornwall during office hours, so I popped into the Cornwall Town Hall where I acquired a Cornwall pin.
A little bit of trivia: Canada's largest pinball arcade will be opening soon in Cornwall. Seven's Pinballorama will feature over 40 pinball machines from the 1930s through to the 1990s.
