The key landscape characteristic of West Penwith is shaped by its granite geology and geographical position at the end of the land – exposed to the full force of the Atlantic Ocean. The hard granite coastline has been sculpted by wind and weather into a sequence of headlands punctuated by substantial cliff chasms or ‘zawns’.
Section 7 does not feature any specific monuments within the Monumental Improvement project. However, its surrounding landscapes are an integral part of Cornwall’s historical and natural heritage, connecting to nearby areas rich in archaeological significance. These connections help us understand the broader context of Cornwall’s past. Find out about the Penwith Landscape Partnership in this area here.
