We spent the day in port today. We went ashore and walked through the town to go to Readymoney beach then on to St Catherines Castle, the remains of a small artillery fort built by Henry VIII in the 1530s to defend Fowey Harbour. Stopping only to buy a Cornish Pastie and a couple of cinnamon buns to have as a picnic.
I couldn’t help but notice as we walked the high street the number of knockers, all shapes and sizes. I took photo’s of a few to share with you.
Sorry… Door knockers. what else did you think I was talking about? There does seem to be a bit of a competition going on.
Looking out from St Catherines, it crossed my mind that it may have been better to move on today. The sailing looked perfect and tomorrow looks like light airs, as we move on to Falmouth. Still we’ll see how we get on.
