Developments in Penzance

After years of waiting, the disused building at the back of the dry dock basin in Penzance is finally being developed - offices and a roof terrace are amongst the planned additions to this classic granite harbour building...
against the harbour wall the remains of steps run up towards the Abbey Hotel...
over in Newlyn, the Orion Gallery has new piece of installation art out front - or is it just the stores for the building work in progress.......
to prevent the memorial being washed away by heavy seas?
on the quay, W&S fleet boss Andy discusses the future of the Filadelfia, bound away today after a four month lay-up....
Over on the new quay another early start for the Valhalla boys as the trawl gets cut from the footrope...
and Colin's mending needle flashes like the blade of Zorro across the stocking....
a familiar figure, complete with harbour box, in the shape of Cap'n Keast makes his way down the north quay....
Elizabeth Veronique makes her way to the ice works....
also in the early morning sun, a couple of twitchers are spotted.............twitching...
over on the slip the Cathryn .......
has undergone some intensive surgery for the medical equivalent of a 'prolapse', after losing some internal support her bottom has successfully been restored to its former position - Edwin will have to treat her gently in the coming weeks when she gets back to work.
