Three buildings - three ages, Portcressa, St. Mary's
The old lifeboat station, the old fire station and a newish building housing a laundrette and offices.
The left hand building was built to house the Henry Dundas, the first St Mary’s lifeboat, in 1874, but ceased to be used with the building of the Carn Thomas station in 1899.
In 1922, it was converted to serve as a bulb cleansing station (new legislation required bulbs to be sterilised before they left the islands) and the fire station (what is now the Dibble and Grub cafe) was added as part of that station.
The Council is now developing the old lifeboat station to serve as the new library

Garden by Porth Cressa
Blue and yellow is the colour theme, with Agapanthus in bloom. Beyond, the bay is partly enclosed, first by the Brow extending from the left, and then the islet of Wras connected by a tombolo to Morning Point. Way beyond is Gugh.
