And Armed Knight Rocks 1890
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I am amazed that so few memories of Land's End have been recorded so I wish to add my brief knowledge. My cousin Peter was born in Hampshire in the 1920s. His mother was my father's sister Kathleen Goodey, later Headland, and born a Scott and owner of the Ship Hotel on Marine Parade East Lee on the Solent in Hampshire, until with her new husband she left the UK for Rhodesia and coffee/tobacco plantations. It was Peter who showed me how to dismantle a TV set and then put it together, all self taught, no wonder he put his electrical knowledge to good use working for many years at the Radio Station at Land's End. I have not heard anything from them since the late 1950s, having lived in Australia since 1969.
