Scilly Little Changes

The Cannons on the Garrison

This is the first of the 2008 series, taken specifically for the site when I was lucky enough to be visiting Scilly this month. This shot show a nice then-and-now (1969 and 2008) contrast of the old Cannons that inhabit one of the many placements on the Garrison walls. It's nice to see that historic artefacts like these don't change much!

Erosion - one of the worst changes

Whilst on St Marys a couple of weeks ago, we were walking round Penninis Head and came across a section of the footpath near Old Town church that had been largely eroded after the recent storms. As erosion is one of the biggest threats that Scillonians face on their islands, I hope it isn't a sign of things to come.
