One late afternoon I decided to go for a walk around Fishing Cove Gunwalloe. This lovely little cove, sometimes known as Halzephron Cove, is situated at the southern most part of Loe Bar on Porthleven Sands at the top of the Lizard Peninsular.
The larger building on the left is known as "the cellars" and was used as the house of Dr Enys in the BBC's Poldark series.
Thought to have been a summer lodging house and winter equipment store for pilchard fishermen in the 18th Century, it was extended in the early 19th Century to create a fish cellar. This was further extended in the late 19th Century but by the Second World War the building was redundant and was used by the Home Guard. The roof slates were removed in 1965 and it fell into ruin.
Today it is a very well situated holiday cottage.
