At Trengwainton where i was breezily informed on entry that they were closing in an hour’s time. Still, I got a photo of the ha-ha.
Long lawn with grey hills behind it. The ha-ha is invisible because ha-has are always invisible. They’re sunken ditches, designed to keep deer out.

Walked to Porthkidney this morning. Mildly irritated to be diverted the wrong side of the golf course but anyway, impressed by how easy i found what is a rather hilly walk. View.

I never realised before that there must be a shelf just outside the harbour of St Ives. When the tide comes in, it arrives very quickly, from nothing at all to a foot deep in ten minutes.
Harbour covered in water with  pier in the distance.
