The Brown Willy effect is a particular example of a meteorological phenomenon known as peninsular convergence, which sometimes occurs in the south-west of Great Britain.
 It leads to heavy showers developing over the high ground of Bodmin Moor in Cornwall, which then often travel a considerable distance downwind of their place of origin.
 The effect is named after the hill, Brown Willy, the highest point on the moor and in Cornwall as a whole.
 It is thought that the Boscastle flood of 2004 was caused by a particularly extreme example.

The Dartmoor longhouse is a type of traditional stone-built home, typically found on the high ground of Dartmoor, in Devon, England and belonging to a wider tradition of combining human residences with those of livestock (cattle or sheep) under a single roof specific to western Britain; Wales, Cornwall and Devon, where they are more usually referred to simply as 'longhouses' and in general housebarns.
 The earliest are thought to have been built in the 13th century, and they continued to be constructed throughout the mediaeval period and into the Early Modern, using local granite or other stone.
 Longhouse near Carreg Cennen Castle in Wales is dated to 11th century.
 Many longhouses are still inhabited today (although adapted over the centuries), while others have been converted into farm buildings.

 A near identical type called the "(Maison) Longère" can also be found in northwestern (Brittany, Normandy) and central France.
