More about this scene

Just south of Cadgwith, the Devil's Frying Pan was once a vast sea-cave before the roof collapsed, leaving this enormous blow-hole over 200 feet deep. Eventually, the remains of the roof will also collapse, resulting in the type of narrow inlet known in Cornish as a zawn.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

We moved to Cadgwith in 1979, the best move of our lives, everyone was so friendly. Our two boys grew up there and had the time of their lives fishing and playing on the beach. We were sad to leave in 1987 but will never forget Cadgwith. Steve and Shiela Thornton.
