St Gennys, Cornwall Weather
About St Gennys, Cornwall
St Gennys commands a rugged stretch of the north Cornish coastline where the earth meets the Atlantic in a collision of grey slate and salt-flecked air. It lies 6.9 miles south-south-west of Bude (from Bude: bearing 210°T, OS grid SX 149 971), and is situated north-east of Crackington Haven village. The terrain here rises sharply from the shore, defined by the geological drama of the Boscastle To Widemouth Sssi, where the cliffs are folded like ancient, discarded linens. Inland, the fields are small and stubborn, hemmed in by stone banks that hold the heat of the day long after the sun has dipped below the horizon. A mere half-mile to the north-north-west, the Promontory Fort N Of Village guards the headland, a silent reminder of those who once watched the same turbulent tides. St Gennys remains shaped by this vertical landscape, where the wind carries a constant, low-frequency hum of the sea against the rock. Life here moves in accordance with the weather, a stark contrast to the sheltered valleys tucked further inland. The light in this corner of the world is thin and searching, casting long, sharp shadows that give the stone walls a tactile, weathered weight.
