Comedians born in St. Buryan

St. Buryan is a small village in the far west of Cornwall, surrounded by open farmland between Penzance and Land's End and close to a group of ancient standing stones. Its tall church tower is visible for miles across this windswept corner of England.

Comedy in rural Cornwall runs through village halls and seasonal events, and touring stand-up now reaches further into the county than it used to. The comedian Jethro was born in the village.
