The Woodrow Pengellys of Looe. October 13, 2013. Looe is on the south east coast of Cornwall and I start with some very old photographs and information about Looe long ago. Then we look at the family: the wives who often had large families and the husbands who were usually fishermen who went to sea in sailing luggers before engines and navigational aids became available. I have included some family trees and old family photographs to help me in this process. Figure 4. The Woodrow Pengelly Family Tree.

“My Torpoint Bomb” in comic verse | Cornwall24.net
http://www.cornwall24.net/2014/06/my-torpoint-bomb-in-comic-verse
My Torpoint Bomb in comic verse. June 21, 2014. Figure No 1. Torpoint Ballast Pond, c. 1977. The Pond is a wall in the form of a square which was built for the Navy in 1783 to house lighters (barges) which were used for ballasting ships. When a Man-O-War returned for major repairs, the stone ballast in the ship’s hold was removed to a lighter which then returned to the Ballast Pond. When a ship required ballast the Lighter was brought out again to deposit the stone into that vessel. Without too much ado.
