One of our favourite walks and a must do when in the area. We arrived as only the third carpark (Cornwall is empty!), to the sound of the fog horn. With a good sea still rolling in, we walked along the coast to Kynance (obligatory pasty) and then back across the peninsula to Church Cove and back round the point to the carpark. As always a fabulous walk.

| Erosion on the cliff top has revealed a mass burial site, that probably related to a shipwreck. Apparently a young lad found a tooth and showed it to a National Trust volunteer who happened to be a dentist, which resulted in the discovery of the site. Further investigation and recording is planned for next year. |

| A gloriously lichen-covered wall. |

| Spectacular ... |

| White Spindles also known as Fairy Fingers. |
 |
| Wafts of fog ... |
 |
| Sketching outside in November - quality! |
 |
| And at a table with a pasty - even more quality! |
 |
| We were treated to some spectacular flying displays by this Peregrine as it was being attacked by first, by a persistent Kestrel and then Choughs, |

| And back along the coastal footpath ... |
