300 year old lugger fleet in Newlyn Town.
Barnabus - Happy Return - Ripple
Hundreds of people and several dozen artists descended on the Old Quay in Newlyn to celebrate Painting Day - when three classic luggers, two from St Ives and one from Mount's Bay were moored in the harbour to create a sight not seen for nearly 100 years. Those who came were able to watch a host of artists at work using a range of mediums to capture a scene from long ago. Harbour Commissioner Kevin Bennetts described the scene as magical and spent time talking to many of those involved - there are high hopes that this will be the first move to create a heritage harbour within the 500 year old harbour wall.
Very nice Laurence, just like the old shots of Newlyn ( Times Gone Bye )
