The western tip of Cornwall is sometimes known as the Land’s End peninsula. Land’s End is the most westerly point in mainland England. If you steer clear of the tourist area, Land’s End has some of the best cliff views in the UK (although we did see some other nice ones that aren’t in this calendar). The subject of this month’s photo is the view of the sea arch known as Enys Dodnan and the Armed Knight rock formation that lie to the south of Land’s End. In the distance is Longships Lighthouse and very small on the horizon is, fittingly, a long ship. The Land’s End area is also known as being a windy place. We planned to hike in the Land’s End area the day before, but the area was forecast to have sustained winds of 50 miles per hour so we rearranged our plan and went to the northern part of Cornwall, which was a little less windy.​​​​​​​
