This view of the towers is taken from inside the ruins.The castle stands on high ground with excellent views over the widening river.
Our view takes in Werwick's Revolving Tower and shows what working-class people did for their week's holiday: they sat and relaxed and took in the sea air.
The pinnacle to the right of the Victoria Tower has now been restored.
The two wood and pantile shelters on either side of what was to become Tower Esplanade were useful refuges when it began to rain.
Here we have a glimpse of the church tower between the houses of Market Street in the old heart of the waterside town. Note the gutter in the centre of the narrow roadway.

It has a magnificent 120ft tower. The Sun Hotel on the right is still trading today.
The long esplanade is one of Penzance's great assets; here we look towards the harbour area, with the lofty church tower as a prominent landmark.
The church was re-built c1220 and was once graced with a tower (subsequently removed and not replaced, hence its rather stunted appearance).
Opposite is the Royal Hotel, with its red brick facade, steep roofs and decorative towers, promising the Victorian traveller a sophisticated welcome.
