Regular readers will have guessed that I like Cornwall, and St Ives is one of my favourite places to visit.
I found this photo of the beach alongside Smeaton’s Pier in St Ives in a box of old photographic negatives:
Vintage Smeaton’s Pier
Compare this with how it looks today:
Modern Smeaton’s Pier
Although the angle isn’t quite the same, it’s surprising how little has changed over the years.
You can see a previous visit to St Ives here:

It’s the end of Summer, and it’s going out in style! People were spotted in their bathers at Brighton last week. Though if I were to go to the beach I’d be tempted to take a jumper, just in case.
Beach Boys
Just like these two charming chaps from the turn of the century.
