Scilly Isles

Administrative Port: Newlyn
County: Cornwall
Population: 2200

The Isles of Scilly form an archipelago off the south-western tip of the Cornish peninsula of Great Britain. Although the Isles of Scilly are still part of the ceremonial county of Cornwall, since 1890 the islands have had a separate local authority. Since the passing of the Isles of Scilly Order 1930, this authority has had the status of a county council and today is known as the Council of the Isles of Scilly. Tourism is a major part of the local economy, along with farming and agriculture.
