On top of a hill outside St. Ives in Cornwall (Carbis Bay, to be geographically precise) is this granite monument built in 1767.
It was intended to be a mausoleum for it's creator John Knill, but since he was buried in Holborn, London, it has always remained empty. Among his many minor claims to fame is that he was mayor of the town between 1762 & 1782.

A warm week in South-West England, though rather hazy as well. This is the view from St Ives Head looking east towards the beaches on the other side of the bay.
Towednack Church Gates

Directly copied and pasted from britainexpress.com:
Towednack church is dedicated to St Winwaloe, a 6th-century hermit across the Channel in Brittany. The nave and chancel are 13th century and were built on the site of a Celtic hermitage (that is, the church was not intended to serve a village, which might account for how few houses there are close to the church!).
The start of a walk in far western Cornwall. The view is towards the curiously spelled Beagletodn Downs
