This is the most southerly point in England, looking back towards the village: Lizzard.
The rock is quite unique here and is used locally for crafts, it is called serpentine.
Part of the coastal path system, you however cannot get to the ocean except at a few spots. This being one of them. If you look carefully, you can see the reamins of a WWII machine gun placment facing towards the ocean where a river cuts through the cliff.
The Lizzard is home to many rare and endangered plant and animal species. Above, Jasione montana.
Silene maritima growing on rocks, not that rare.
Kynace Cove, a popular spot at low tide for its sandy beach.
