Prussia Cove, Cornwall
Looking north-by-east into Prussia Cove, a small cove in Mount's Bay, with rowboats in a trot afloat. The photographer was standing on the path leading down to the cove, which has four rowing boats pulled up into it. A man in a flat cap and waistcoat is sitting on the low wall of the path looking at the camera. In the foreground is a lobster pot. Cliff House is on the cliff top to the right, with Willy's Cottage on the far left, slightly obscured by the cliffs and foliage. Next door is a two-storey house, now called Sea View House. Francis Frith & Co negative no. 79965.
