Whilst sorting the house, found a hand drawn map from 1979, showing a through route from Priests Cove to Porth Leddon. I acquired the map whilst at CSM in the early 80's. Wondered if the route was still open or if anyone had been down there recently? IP: 81.151.210.149

I am told this is regular and easily dug. Probably someone on here have more recent news. -- My avatar is a poor likeness. IP: 88.108.7.37
