Bright and breezy afternoon. Great walking weather! The coastal path from Old Town to Porth Hellick. I took a little detour and climbed up the Carn at Giants Castle to take a couple of pictures from a different angle.

Good morning Daniel.
Would you please pass on our sincere thanks to all the staff and the owners of The Bell Rock Hotel, we had a most enjoyable week in St Mary’s – much to the disgust of my wife I didn’t put on any weight despite having a Full English breakfast every day and a significant meal every evening.
With best wishes,
John & Di Vernon

A north end walk around St Mary's up to Bants Carn ancient village around to Watermill Cove.
Bants Carn Ancient Village & Burial Chamber:
Just by Bants Carn is the large mast which brings in our tv & radio signals along with mobile phone signal... And probably various other uses as well.

Holy Vale & Normandy
There's still plenty of flowers out at the moment. Holy Vale is a well manicured area and there's also vines growing in the fields by the steep hill.
Along to Normandy, and the newer social housing area of Barns Acre has an array of colourful plants along the roadside walls.
All around Scilly you will see dry stone walls.
Now there has been hedge cutting, you can see various views not seen for a couple of months. The view up the hill to Tremelethen across to Porth Hellick is just one example. Honeysuckle in the hedgerow caught my eye here.
