Fish Strand Quay

A Memory of Falmouth.

Yes, I 'grew up' on Fish Strand and still use it to this day. My father kept various boats off the quay and we always had a dinghy moored there, and we still do, my father is now in his 90s and I have 2 grandaughters.
I remember people like Willie Henderson and Alec Henderson, and Arthur Randall. Chards Ice House stood on one side before they built the car park, it was always a good place to scrounge a fish head to go crabing off the end of the Quay having first purchased your hooks and codline from Boxalls, it was 1/2p a yard
Many happy hours were spent learning to swim off the steps and diving for coins thrown by the 'visitors'.
Anyone reading this who remembers me please get in touch.
