Way down to Lamorna.


There's a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, well recycling old fishing net is provinga pot of gold for some in the industry...



while Simon on the windy gun sees that the starboard side beam trawl is being put back together squarely...



Nathan keeps an eye on the beam as 5 tons of trawl are raised by the winch...



there are some strange looking growths on the new Lidl supermarket site at Wherry Town...



holiday in a place of artistic history, Lamorna Birch's studio can be rented...



they get some strange things washed ashore in the cove...



now that the old harbour wall has almost completely been destroyed by successive winter storms...



evidence of a hand-drilled bore hole in the harbour walls - Cornish miners were world-renowned for the hard rock mining skills which can be seen if you visit Geevor Mine near St Just...



the Gry Maritha heads back to Penzance past a bulk carrier anchored in deep water off Lamorna...



house on the river Gover, a homemade name plaque...



the cove is still home to several artists studios...



though it is a shame the artistic integrity does not extend to the Lamorna Wink's naffest pub sign, I mean a pirate with implants?!!!...



sunset in Mount's Bay...



a daily show of light, dusk and dark.
