We had to go to collect something at the coast today and on the way back we stopped off in Pennan - a favourite place over the years. It never seems the same twice and today it was VERY WET!
When it was built access was by sea and the very steep road down to it is a bit 'hold your breath' in case you meet something coming the other way! The road actually turns right at the front of the house with green windows in the top left mini pic. And the cottages are mostly end on to the sea as they take such a pounding on stormy days.
They are all 'tucked in ' to the cliff side and in recent years, because of extremely wet weather, the cliffs have been slipping and a section collapsed in on some of the cottages. The local authority has taken action and now the slopes are 'pinned' to hopefully prevent this happening again.
If you are old enough to have seen the film 'Local Hero' this is where part of it was set. The red telephone box (in the top right mini pic) was a feature in the film.
Some of the old cottages, mostly refurbished, are beautiful and the 'blurry' photo is one of the splashes that hit me! My jeans were soaked!!
Considering it was so wet, this is a wonderful collection of pics. I like the 'splashes' (no pun intended!) of colour - they really make it come alive.
definitely! look forward to having you both for a visit!
