Kelynack Cornwall Map

About Kelynack

Kelynack, a scatter of granite homes and fields, breathes the raw air of West Cornwall. It lies 1.3 km south of St Just (from St Just: bearing 174°T, OS grid SW 371 300). The land around Kelynack falls away towards the wild Atlantic coast, a sweep of heath and gorse that catches the late afternoon sun with a fierce, golden light. Its history is etched into the very stone of its cottages, built to withstand the Cornish winds that have shaped this landscape for centuries. The nearby Geevor Tin Mine, now a museum, speaks of a past when the earth yielded its riches, a labour that imprinted itself deeply on the local character. Even now, a sense of resilience and connection to the elemental forces of sea and stone pervades Kelynack.
