Wednesday 9th March 2016…the Well of St Keyne

Having unpacked around half of our boxes (the rest floor to ceiling in the garage), we went for our first walk from St Keyne today. 20160302_162247.jpgA steep descent down a lane to St Keyne’s well (made famous in a poem ‘The Well of St Keyne’ by Keats , and indeed turned into a mini opera) and the river valley, followed by a rather gentler ascent with the banks full of Spring primroses and daffodils, it was quite a delight. Such hilly country. Very reminiscent of Devon where we lived once. This area is quite unlike other areas of Cornwall, and we think we are lucky to have ‘found’ it.
