Of unknown age but likely to be Bronze Age 2,400-800 BC. The jagged tops of Carn Galva can be seen on the horizon.

Bosigran Head, for Pam.

Near the car park before the walk up to Chun Castle and Chun Quoit. I think this is just in Morvah parish but it could conceivably be in Madron parish. If anyone is desperately anxious to know which, please ask me and I'll get back with a definitive answer

A famous pioneering 19th century climb. Bosigran, granite coast, Cornwall www.google.es/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjrpKCn85zdAhVB4YUKHd_9BYkQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DErLC82eHE5c&psig=AOvVaw0qmP2516Y3Qfb_atFJyx-v&ust=1535997627507172

Commando Ridge

10 Jun 2018 31 24 476
The bottom pitches of a famous pioneering rock climb of Victorian times, seen from the top of Bosigran Cliffs. The area became a key commando training ground in WWII, hence the modern name of the climb. I can vouch for the fact that it is an extremely enjoyable climb at the lower end of Hard V Diff. I have seen it graded at V Diff. But I think it is a little bit harder than that!

Carn Galva.

Raised coastal platform from the summit of Carn Galva (Carn Galver on OS maps and Google). The Cornish coast and Rosemergy Farm, Morvah Parish. As I have mentioned a couple of times before, those distant stone walls are thought to be some of the oldest continuously used stone structures (still used for their original purpose) anywhere in the world. (Possibly 7-8,000 years old).

Cornish colour fantasy.

Some will remember this from Pano and 23 hq. Pure fantasy with a bit of tweaking of tone but the colours at that moment were not far off this! Bosigran Head, Zennor, Cornwall - the main climbing cliff. 2nd posting on ipernity; first time 4 years ago but worth a re-show just for the colours of this early evening shot!
