Golden Gorse, Pink Thrift and Pasties - A walk in Cornwall



Ian has just returned from a week of walking on the Cornish Coast. The group members were also interested in Cornish history and culture. The walks covered the area of the north coast between Boscastle and St Ives. The wild flowers were splendid with bluebells, primroses, spring squill and thrift all playing their part, but the star of the show was definitely the gorse providing a splash of gold and a heady, coconut-scented, fragrance.

All this natural splendour with Cornish pasties and cream teas too!!
