Local artist, Jeremy Thompson captured the Spirit of Mystery as she was being rowed towards the gaps on the Monday evening, October 20th. As dusk fell over the harbour, lights can be seen in the Fishermen's Arms and the other houses that overlook the spectacle. For a short while Penlee lifeboat's predecessor, a rowing lifeboat, was kept on the beach here from 1904-1913, at that time the harbour side was still a cliff before being faced with granite as it is today.
Fresh Cornish Fish from Newlyn Harbour - home to the fishermen who land prime line, trawl, net and pot caught fish and shellfish daily so that Michelin starred Cornish chefs like Nathan Outlaw can source MSC accredited Pollock, Bass, Sardine and Mackerel. Digital images available from stock or on commission. Art students are encouraged to use the harbour as inspiration for their work, as did the Newlyn School of Artists - info@newlynharbour.co.uk site maintained by Laurence Hartwell.
