Looe, Harbour 1912

Photo ref: 64624

More about this scene

A tidal race rushing into the harbour is used to good advantage by the sailing boat as she alters course to starboard, preparing to overtake the underwater mooring of an unmanned rowing boat. We can almost imagine the conversation between the man in the craft and those on the jetty.

Boating Lake

I remember the millpool being used as a boating lake and being able to hire rowing boats, canadian style canoes and sailing dinghys. Over the years the council reclaimed more and more of the millpool for use as a carpark and now there is only a fraction of it left and what was a nice big boating lake is now the main carpark for the town.
