More about this scene

This must be the most visited and certainly the best placed souvenir and refreshment shop in Cornwall, just a stone's throw from the tip of Land's End. We can see an extension on the right-hand side of the original small house, reflecting the increasing number of tourists who were then coming here.

I have a photo of my glamorous mother in front of the First and Last House when three lines once sprawled across its roof— F I R S T  &  L A S T H O U S E   I N E  N  G  L  A  N  D .She stands poised upon a rock ‘fore the plain structure amid stark sky. Land’s End winds forever blow her hair— The concept of a first and last house first captured my mind when I was a child. It will remain with me until my last breath.
