  1. Nanquidno Valley and the Brisons out at sea.

    Nanquidno Valley and the Brisons out at sea.

    This is a truly beautiful spot and little frequented. I have here, on looking up, seen a chough flying overhead. Nanquidno probably is derived from the Cornish 'Nans' (Valley) and Gwynn (Fair) (compare with Port Quin which means 'fair/white harbour'). Unless there's an unknown plural 'gwennow'...

    Nanquidno Valley - An adit?

    A useful 'pit stop' in a hidden valley near St Just without amenities!
