Golant

Golant is a village in south Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is on the west bank of the River Fowey and in the civil parish of St Sampson. Golant is about two miles north of Fowey and seven miles east of St Austell. Golant church is dedicated to St Sampson of Dol.

The Sawmills recording studio was established in 1974. The main building is a 17th-century water mill and the site has a documented history stretching back to the 11th century. Artists such as The Stone Roses, The Verve and Swans have recorded at the Sawmills.[10] The Oasis album Definitely Maybe was also recorded there.

The studio was featured in the BBC programme Three Men in More Than One Boat starring Rory McGrath, Griff Rhys Jones and Dara Ó Briain shown in January 2009.[11] Little recording takes place at Sawmills nowadays and the building is principally a holiday let.
