About This Book

A practical, illustrated guide traces the Cornish coastline district by district, combining route advice for pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists with geological interpretation, natural history, and topographical description. Each chapter describes coastal towns, bays, headlands, estuaries and islands, noting local scenery, antiquities, churches, lighthouses and gardens, and offers map recommendations and travel tips. Photographs and route maps accompany accounts of the Scilly Isles, Land's End, Mount's Bay and other districts, while occasional reflections on erosion, folklore and submerged landscapes place the scenery in geological and cultural context.
