St Anthony Head

After St Just we decided to go out to St Anthony Head and have a little look around, then go on to St Mawes.
What we actually did was park at the wrong car park and walk for about three miles along the road and coast. Google map showing the road we walked back along.
At least walking's good for us... And maybe burnt off the ice cream?

Of course the time to look at the map is once you're in the tea garden, having walked a mile and a half ish...

It was pretty though. (no photos of the walk out, too busy walking!)

There's a lighthouse on the end of St Anthony's head. It works but you can holiday in it!

The views are probably akin to this.

Which is the view from this, an observation post built years ago. That and the rest of the battery are looked after by the National Trust.

These days it's somewhat grassy. There's still plenty of heavy shipping going in and out of Falmouth, across the water.

I don't think the telescope is original though...

After having a good look around the end of the headland, we walked back along the road.

And bothered the flowers.
Then we went home and roasted the lump of meat (beef I think) which we'd bought at the butchers in Twywardreath that morning. It was GOOD.

And that's the end of our Cornish adventures. I didn't really cover the first bit, but that just leaves me more photos to post when I'm short of ideas! There're notes in lots of the descriptions on Flickr.

All my Cornwall photos can be found together here, including the film ones.
