    May 17, 2018 in England ⋅ ⛅ 10 °C

    The light rain of yesterday has stopped and we had breakfast at 8am after Margaret had taken the eggs to the Co op market. Left about 10am and drove to the Carn Euny Iron Age village containing a fogou (underground chamber and passage). Then drove to Sennen Beach passing on the way with difficulty a car and truck in a narrow lane. Walked to Lands End along the Coast Path passing a wreck on the way. Yvonne purchased a tea towel from the “First and Last” shop. Returned to the car and drove to Cape Cornwall and parked at the edge of St Just village. Walked downhill to Cape Cornwall then down a track to Porth Ledden cove via a high tide boat access. As it was low tide we crossed the rocks and I took photos of seaweed and mussels before arriving at the Kenidjack area of the Tin Coast. We saw the conserved arsenic works ruin near the catcher pool dam. Followed the Coast Path towards St Just and back to the car. Drove to the the Bowood Park Hotel Lanteglos, Camelford which is in the middle of it’s own golf course. Dinner at the hotel as is not near any urban centre.Read more
