Houses at Portreath
These seem to face each other 'back-to-back' with this path rather than a road running between the front gardens.

Terraced Houses
My companion was trying to find the house where he had lived for a short time with his family several decades ago. It wasn't easy when so many of the houses look silimar.

Rope store, Portreath Harbour
I was told that this small weathered red brick structure is probably the old harbour rope store where the ropes for warping vessels in and out of the harbour would be stored.
This tiny fragment is about all that remains of the thriving C19th industrial port complex that once occupied this site.

Portreath Beach
On a Saturday afternoon in June, while some get themselves wet in the sea, others are basking in the sunshine on the dry sand at the beach front.

Portreath from the south
Portreath developed on either side of the river, as a port for shipping tin and other minerals, as well as hosting a small fishing fleet. The modern houses close to the sea have been built on the site of former harbour buildings and quays. The village expanded up the steep slopes either side of the village with improved transport links in the 19th and 20th centuries.
