Early morning at West Looe, Cornwall

            It's early in the morning, and as the sun rises its rays catch the buildings on the riverside at West Looe, while East Looe remains in shadow. Until the end of the 1890s the twin towns of East Looe and West Looe, situated on opposite sides of the Looe River, were quite separate. West Looe had traditionally had its centre at the bottom of West Looe Hill, while East Looe stretched from the seafront to the bridge across the river. A popular holiday resort, Looe still retains a small fishing industry with the boats going out and returning the same day. East Looe has a beautiful sandy beach while West Looe, part of which is pictured, has a promenade stretching half a mile or so along the seafront with a rock shelf below. This is revealed at low tide together with dozens of rock pools and some small patches of sand.
