  1. Remembering my #Cornwall trip

    This is taken in the west of Cornwall. A former submarine mine with tunnels extending under the sea in #Botallack. Since 2006, it has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

    The Crowns Engine Houses are such an iconic Cornish landmark.

  3. We visited one of my favourite places again today, the disused tin mines at #Botallack in #Cornwall
    Just how anyone could work in such a precarious location is beyond me. Its such a beautiful place but I'd be terrified of going into those mines, it must have been a very dangerous way to earn a living.
    I didn't see any #Choughs which was a shame as I've spotted them here before, they're still a reasonably rare sight. We certainly don't have any on the Isle of Wight.
