Perranporth This is last weeks pic St Pirans oratory, we thought it looked a mess now,The site of the oratory of St Piran is in the extensive sand dunes known as Penhale Sands.[8][9] Legend has it that St Piran landed on Perran beach from his native Ireland and built the oratory in the Irish style. The first oratory was probably built of wattle and daub and replaced in stone at a later date. The oratory was very simple in plan and was barely 30 feet (9.1 m) long. Local community groups have established a fund for re-excavation of the site which began in early 2014 This picture appears in the following picture tour: Camera Make: Panasonic Model: DMC-FZ72 |
