About Lostwithiel Campaign Site, Cornwall
The Lostwithiel campaign site marks where Royalist forces under King Charles I trapped a Parliamentarian army commanded by the Earl of Essex in 1644, during the English Civil War. Essex's infantry surrendered after being cornered near the Fowey estuary, though his cavalry escaped. The victory secured Cornwall for the king and ranked among the Royalists' major successes.
