Beautiful Sunrise this morning in St Ives!

Lovely local museum full of information about St. Ives and its history

Tony Mason, Archive Trustee, gave popular historical walks in St Ives last year - including a New Year's Eve walk pictured here - and we are thrilled that he will be starting them up again in June 2024!

Dates and walk details will be shared on Facebook and Instagram closer to the time. If you haven't been on one of his walks before (or if you have!) we hope to see you on one this year!
