What to expect

We pause to look at the fabulous coastline and a bronze age burial mound before continuing along the coast to look at the spectacular chevron folds, an amazing geological feature of folded layers of sedimentary rock.

We walk around the historic harbour talk of the industry which built Boscastle. You'll learn of the flood of Boscastle in 2004. We walk up to The Lookout which is on the site of a bronze age castle. Before we leave Boscastle we visit the castle which gives Boscastle it's name.

Davidstow Airfield & Cornwall At War Museum

An absolutely fascinating place to visit, this airfield saw action in WW2 and was used as a formula one racing circuit post war. The Cornwall at War Museum is also well worth a visit. The airfield is free to visit, but entry to the museum is not included.

Stannon Moor prehistoric relics circular walk
