I remember when I was a child coming here on holidays coming down and watching the China clay being loaded on to coasters ,the China clay was loaded via the chutes you see on top of the wall, wonderful memories!

Yes, your shoes are holding up quite well! I enjoy listening to see what noises come out of the different surfaces you walk on. lol I know, I'm odd. It gives me a "real" feel of being there too! My favourite part has gotta be when you are down by the sea walking on the pebbles to the caves. I love walking on the different formations of rocks, and discovering what the rock pools have living in them. The caves were real interesting also! Of course too, when you were walking with the pastel colored cottages on the left and the port on the right leading down to the sea. Again with those dark heavy clouds threatening above the sea. Thanks once more for an enjoyable adventure! :)

1981 I went to work and indeed live in Charlestown. It is looking well cared for. When the Rashley family had custody there were many empty houses and there was no way on earth they would let anyone live in or help preserve. So I moved about to other towns. Eventually the far end of St Austell Above the beach and into the next cove was a PUB that never seemed to close. David & Lily.

It’s looking much better than when we last visited. The illness took its toll I suppose. We had to pay to enter the dock and it was very expensive. There weren’t little cafes etc- in fact, not much to see down there. Much better now!

My parents and I went there in 1997 to a nearby holiday camp (I don't know if it is still running). I don't remember the street. I only remember the harbour because my dad was born in one of the houses overlooking the harbour. I think I remember him telling me it was the end yellow house. I am not 100% sure.

I haven’t been through all the comments but some of the the scenes from the movie The Eagle has Landed starring Micheal Caine, Donald Sutherland, Jenny Agutter and JR himself Larry Hagman were filmed down in the harbour
