Commerans Farm Lane, St Just in Roseland
The road was built by a local contractor during WWII to provide access to the Turnaware Point embarkation jetties code named "Dolphins".
The left hand section shows a scheme to widen the road, carried out by the US Army Corps of Transportation, to ease traffic jams .
Local sources point out that the Americans used inferior concrete composed mainly of large hardcore. Certainly the Cornish version has better stood the test of time.

Fal Estuary, St Just in Roseland
At low tide several small beaches are exposed on the Eastern side of the Fal Estuary. In the background is Turnaware Point at the start of the "river" proper.
In fact the estuary is a drowned valley or "ria" and the rivers that feed it, the Fal, Allen and Carnon, are relatively insignificant. The overwhelming flow of water is saline and tidal.
