Hilary Stock JOURNEYS, 2022
I always remember my grandmother out walking in Cornwall. She would go up along the path to the Coastguards, all the way to church in the next village, or simply around the harbour to the shops. She didn’t own a car and thought nothing of embarking on some quite long journeys.
During our summer visits, we would set off, her and Mum idling along deep in discussion as we trailed behind, sharing found treasure and made up stories. That Cornish habit has stayed with me, and I would happily spend each and every day walking.
This year, I have put together a series of journeys around the Roseland, sharing the things that caught my eye, in the hope that they kindle others’ memories and feelings.
TOWAN TO PORTSCATHO
Heading from Towan to Portscatho in the bright sunshine feels somehow otherworldly. On this particular day, the mist of the early morning blurred the horizon far out at sea, softening the light as the sun started to filter into the new morning. The joy of a coastal walk is that the combination of sea, sky and season makes it endlessly different each time – and yet reassuringly familiar.
