About Kerris

Kerris, a quiet hamlet in Cornwall, offers a gentle respite from the more boisterous coastal settlements. It lies 2.5 km south-west of Newlyn (from Newlyn: bearing 221°T, OS grid SW 444 271), and is situated west-north-west of Sheffield village. The lanes leading into Kerris are often bordered by stone walls, their grey surfaces softened by a tenacious growth of lichen, hinting at the passage of seasons. Here, the light seems to fall with a particular clarity, illuminating the slate-hung cottages and the occasional patch of vibrant fuchsia. The air carries a subtle scent of salt from the nearby Atlantic, a constant reminder of Cornwall's maritime heritage, even inland. A sense of enduring quietude pervades Kerris, a place where the land itself seems to breathe a slow, steady rhythm.
