Porthleven, Cornwall - a photo on Flickriver

            Here's one from the archives, taken in April 2021 when I visited the area around Porthleven on the south-west coast of Cornwall. Porthleven is the most southerly port in Great Britain and was originally developed as a harbour of refuge when this part of the Cornish coastline was infamous for wrecks in the days of sail. Porthleven's most recognisable building is the Bickford-Smith Institute next to the pier and harbour entrance. It was built on the site of the old Fisherman's Arms and was opened on 16 December 1884. The clock tower on the west corner is 70 feet high. The Institute was Grade II-listed in 1991 and currently houses the town council and a snooker club.
