View from Pen Enys headland as far as the Island, St Ives

I truly believe The Island was just that, an island; historical records, coupled with statements that houses were almost only to the south (right hand side of this picture), also coupled with the fact of the inundation of c1100, and drawings of earlier St Ives, where the break between sand and cliff can be seen clearly.

Ahead of you is Carrick Du, Man s Head; behind you is Clodgy Point. It was my understanding that Pen Enys was The Island.

Thanks for that interesting info, Treeve!

Wow!... lovely colour sea....and great pic well done!

You are welcome. It is just that I have an ongoing interest in coastal erosion, inundation and weather; we hear so much about worries of coastal erosion and weather being so bad; nothing changes, we have not had the serious stuff that used to happen. I like to see how a town develops, building stonework is an indication.

WOW i like this cause it s from a great angle.

What you say makes sense, Treeve! Thanks too, sparky and blondesurfguy!

How clear is that water! It looks beautiful
