    You've gone and done it now! You have just told the world about the most secluded and off grid place in Cornwall . Sounds like just the place we all need at times away from todays madness. Love the touching shot of you two sat on the beach. Thinking of you all at this stressful time.

    Hello Sarah and Andrew! So lovely to see you again out and enjoying the beauty of Cornwall 🤩 We walked past this area last year, and I agree that in a strange way, this not-so-ancient industrial ruins also have their own beauty like the old mining engines have. We were there probably at a lower tide, and the Manacles were visible as a rugged predator's jaw with molars in a long row. I can hardly imagine the horrors of all those people drowning. And funny remark about The Quarrymen and rock music. I am sure you know it, but I just have to say that The Quarrymen was the original name of the Beatles 🎶🎸🎤 And they played indeed rock music 😃 Thank you for this beautiful and serene video and all my best to you and your family 🥰 Torunn.

    Classic CWT adventure, full of surprises, and wonderful sights & sounds ~ thank you! It just shows that in Cornwall, if you're prepared to put the effort into going off the beaten track, you can find blissful reviving solitude (Portheras Cove did it for me a few years back). I had no idea that The Manacles was so treacherous (reckless sea captains clearly didn't help). Just love a post-industrial landscape like that jetty and its buildings...so atmospheric! Glad you both had this refreshing break, and all love to your Mum, Dad and the whole family x

    Hi Sarah and Andrew, first of all best wishes to your mum and dad hope all is well now. A gorgeous walk away from the madding crowds with just the sound of mother ocean to sooth the soul just what you needed. That really looks an interesting spot to explore and as you said all part of Cornish history. Thank you one again for another lovely vlog, love to one and all,,,,,,Brian&Jane.

    Have missed your Friday walks & history lessons, & wondered why. Life is so full of ups and downs. We, as viewers, forget that the people who present us with videos of places we used to visit & cannot do so anymore, also have lives outside of You Tube. What a peaceful tranquil place you took us to & I could see how much it meant to you Sarah to forget for a little while the stresses we all have. Going through similar things here too Sarah, so appreciated the diversion into another world to escape for a while. Wishing your lovely mum better health & sending positive healing vibes her way🌠🌈 x J x

    So sorry Sarah to hear about your Mum, we do wish her well & it is lovely to see you both back on our favourite channel. What a fascinating video this week and well worth the wait. Cornwall’s coast is beautiful but can be treacherous & the shipwreck stories are a testament to that. Beautiful scenery but, something different- an Industrial beauty- we really enjoyed seeing a part of Cornwall through your eyes we will never see ourselves. “Rock on Andrew”

    I hope you find the following about Dean Quarry of interest. The rock that was quarried is of a very hard type. In the early part of WWII German aircraft were attacking the coasters (small merchant ships) with their guns and killing/wounding the crews.
    What was required was a cheap and lightweight form of protection which could be fitted to the superstructure of the merchant ships. Knowing that the Dean Quarry rock was very hard and used for road surfacing, the idea of using hard bitumen sheets containing small pieces of the rock was developed. It was known as "Rock Armour" and saved hundreds of seamen's lives.

    Hope Sarah and Andrew. Really enjoyed your walk today. It is sad to hear about all those who lost their lives but also fascinating to hear the history of it to. Even the history of the old quarry and the jetty which I notice the sea is slowly reclaiming back or is it just me. Hope your Mum and Dad gets well soon. Remembering the joined you on a few of your easy walks with the 2 dogs IE not the puppy.

    Ahhh.. So interesting again Sarah and Andrew 🙏... Fantasy to find a place that's so quiet at this time of year. I get the beauty of that landscape.. reminds me of the mining area of Penwith.. I find that beautiful too 💖. Really hope your Mum recovers well Sarah 🙏🥰

    Wonderful video, I live on the peninsula, but have never ventured farther than Coverack or St Keverne. Curious to learn more about the Manacles I went on Google. Another You Tube video popped up by a chap called Gavin Parsons, on a sunny day during a low spring tide, he filmed them from the air, the sea is crystal clear and you can see the rocks on the surface, but also where they spread out underneath, hiding their true menace. It is well worth a watch. Best wishes to your mum, I hope she recovers well.

  • @cornwall_in_Squares
    @cornwall_in_Squares ปีที่แล้ว

    Didn't see a soul apart from me, on the road back to St Keverne, I am pretty lucky to have that on my doorstep and a view of the Manacles from home. Brilliant video as always.

    My Ching ancestors were all from St Keverne in the 1700s-1842…..That’s why I am finding all of your adventures so interesting as well as your research from the books that you have been reading on the area. The Ching ancestors migrated in sailing ships and came to live here in Nelson, New Zealand.

    Hello Sarah and Andrew. So sorry to hear of your Mum's heath issues Sarah and best wishes for better times ahead. Love this part of the world and have stayed in Coverack a few times. The tales of shipwrecks are always harrowing and not helped with scoundrels as sea captains. The walk along the coast to Lowland Point and beyond is always done with very few people, even in the holiday time we are obliged to go in. Back from Dean quarry and up the path next to it, is of course a short way to Roskilly's and a morning walk can be rewarded with a nice lunch there and then back through the farmland to Coverack.

    Love everyone’s comments 😘 I cried…and I laughed: the human stories and history…ROLOs-my favorite!… and “the Rock Band”! Thank you for sharing about your Mum,Sarah, such a personal and poignant moment. Taking it “day to day “, finding the small joys and grace..moment by moment. May all the love you two share from your huge hearts..come back to you a thousand-fold.

    Yay! Beat you to it, for a change. Friday 11-August-2023, Wife and I and our 2 spaniels parked at Coverack. Walked the coast path to Porthoustock, Up the valley to St_Keverne. Then back to the coast path and back to Coverack.( with a quick diversion for a Roskillys ice Cream) We remember that path with the odd hand rail on the steep track. We didn't see many people either, though Coverack and Roskillys were packed.
    BTW our best wishes to your mum. Hope she recovers ok.

    Lovely relaxing video, but so much tragedy in that cove is heartbreaking, beautifully narrated as always and packed full of interest, you never disappoint, so sorry to hear your mum has been very poorly of late Sarah, wishing her a speedy recovery and blessings to all of your lovely family, and your two adorable rascals! best wishes from Bernice 🤗🤗🤗

    Hello Sarah and Andrew, I am very sorry that your mum is in such a bad way:(. I wish her, and your family all the best and hope that your mum gets better soon. I know how difficult it is when you are helping to care for her and how much of burden it is. Take your rest breaks when you need to, and enjoy the sea and the nature, and put the videos on hold for once. I think all of your viewers will understand if you don't have a video every week and you need time for yourself. It was again very interesting to hear cornish history and the place where we walked in February. I am thinking of you and sending lots of strength. Gabi:)

    Sorry to hear of your troubles....I did wonder where you had gone (assumed you were on holiday- but then, living in Cornwall, you are permanently 'on holiday' 😅).
    I hope that your Mum recovers soon.
    We are on our annual holiday in Cornwall....we kept a weather eye out in case we bumped into you!

    saw your video last night on my Roku. Those track-like things underneath the cement tipple were conveyor belt rollers. The 'tracks' are the frames and you can see the 3 rollers to keep the belt in a U shape to keep everything contained. Bulk conveyor belts rode on them. the belts themselves are long gone. Reference 24 mins 2 seconds.

    I am fairly sure that along the many rocky shores of Cornwall (and other shores around Britain, but Cornwall"s smugglers history is probably the most infamous) has borne witness to several wrecks. Some due to poor seamanship, some due to unforeseen reefs and sand bars. Some due to lack of lighthouses, and of course, some deliberately drawn onto rocks and into shallows by smugglers who misled old-time sailors by lighting supposed safe sailing routes, thereby luring ships away from safe passage, in order to rob them of their valuable cargoes, often leaving wrecked crewmen and / or passengers to drown in the breakers.

    Have you been to Tregoning Hill,Ashton near Helston to the site of the first china clay mine in 1745? Still the remnants of it with a public footpath up to it with great 360 degree views.
