Tucked away on the South Coast of the West Penwith peninsula, Penberth Cove is a historic pilchard fishing hamlet, made famous in the recent Poldark series. With its small fishing fleet and traditional fisherman's cottages, the cove exudes a charming, timeless atmosphere that feels like stepping back in time.
Another day galavanting around Cornwall, this time in Penwith, the part of Cornwall where the traditional Cornish Language was spoken for the longest.

A rare view of Land's End, Cornwall, taken from a helicopter bound for the Isles of Scilly. Land's End (Cornish name: Penn an Wlas) is a headland on the Penwith peninsula, located near Penzance in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is the most westerly tip of the southern mainland (for Great Britain as a whole it is Corrachadh Mòr, Ardnamurchan, Scotland which is 22 miles further west). Visible from Land's End is the Longships Lighthouse. The Longships, a few miles out, is a serpentine and quartz island. Offshore, midway between Land's End and the Isles of Scilly, is the supposed location of the mythical lost land of Lyonesse, referred to in Arthurian literature. There is now a theme park at Land's End, but you can still visit for free! Almost!
Lanyon Quoit is an imposing dolmen that dominates the open landscape in which it sits. Found on the moorland near Madron in Penwith, it is thought to originally have been a burial chamber and would have been covered with smaller stones and earth. The structure originally had four supports and stood taller than at present. But in a massive storm in 1815 one of the stone uprights snapped and the structure was re-erected on the remaining three supports.

Today, a story about adaptation. The University of Houston's College of Engineering presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. The first miners who stepped into our great forbidding West weren't after gold. They were after more useful metals -- tin and copper. Gold didn't turn up in California until 1848. But miners had already crossed the Mississippi by 1840.
