Description
Sennen can lay claim to being the first and last parish in Britain. Sited at the most westerly tip of Cornwall, it is a landscape of coves, farms, and hamlets, and includes the famous promontory of Land’s End which, over the centuries, has attracted thousands of visitors. A close-knit community grew up in this once remote parish and a strong sense of friendship and family ties continues to this day.The sea has played a vital part in the life of the parish with fishermen gaining a tough living from it and the lifeboat, coastguards and lighthouse keepers have all been part of its proud maritime tradition.The community spirit endures in Sennen and through memories and a rich harvest of photographs, a way of life that is fast disappearing is celebrated and preserved in this delightful book.
