Gwinear Cornwall Map

About Gwinear

Gwinear, a Cornish settlement, holds a quiet dignity under the broad sweep of the South West sky. It lies 3.6 km east of Hayle (from Hayle: bearing 83°T, OS grid SW 594 374), and is situated south-east of Angarrack village. The lanes that wind through Gwinear often carry the scent of damp earth and the faint, salty tang from the nearby coast, a subtle reminder of its proximity to the sea's vast breath. Ancient granite farmhouses, their walls weathered to a soft grey by countless Cornish storms, stand as stoic witnesses to generations who have worked this land. The parish church, St. Winier's, with its sturdy tower, has long been a focal point, its bells a comforting chime against the rustle of the wind through the surrounding fields. In the warmer months, the air above Gwinear can shimmer with a peculiar, almost golden light, as if the very sun lingers a moment longer before dipping below the horizon.
