In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Lank like this:
LANK, a hamlet on the Lank rivulet, in Cornwall; near the rivulet's mouth, 6 miles NNE of Bodmin. Lank Down and the Lank Rocks are in the vicinity: and on these are two granite cairns, locally called the King's and the Queen's houses.
Lank is now part of CORNWALL Unitary Authority. Click here for graphs and data of how CORNWALL has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Lank itself, go to Statistics.
