The name Restormel comes from Cornish, meaning the king's tower hill.The motto of the borough, in Cornish, is Ro an mor hag an tyr, meaning "From the sea and from the land".

The St Austell River (Cornish: Dowr an Wynyk, meaning the little white river) properly known as the River Vinnick, but historically called The White River, is a 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) long river located in south Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. 50.337°N 4.793°W / 50.337; -4.793. The river has also been known as the "red river" due to tin streaming and mining activity upstream. The river drains the central southern section of the St Austell Moorland, the second largest granite mass in Cornwall, an upland formed in the Variscan orogeny, to the north of St Austell. The highest natural point of the moorland is Hensbarrow Beacon at 312 metres (1,024 ft); however modern china clay mining waste tips now rise above it. The name White River has been adopted locally because waste water from china clay quarrying and refining practices was emptied into the river giving it a white colour.The local term White River has given its name to the St Austell Town Centre Redevelopment Scheme, which is now called White River Place.

Following the collapse of the price of tin in the 1860s, Carclaze continued to produce china clay and in 1873 the circumference of the pit was over 1 mile (1.6 km), 150 feet (46 m) deep and covered about 12 acres (4.9 ha).
