Saint Austell is a historic market town in Cornwall, England, known for its rich heritage in the china clay industry. Located in the heart of what became known as the Cornish Clay Country, the town played a crucial role in the extraction and processing of kaolin, a mineral essential for fine porcelain production. The area's industrial heritage is deeply intertwined with its cultural identity, having shaped both its landscape and community development.

Today, Saint Austell continues to embrace its historical significance while serving as a cultural hub in Cornwall. The town center features Georgian and Victorian architecture, reflecting its prosperous past, and the surrounding area offers insights into Cornwall's mining heritage. The nearby Eden Project, though not in the town proper, has added a contemporary cultural dimension to the region.
