A quick sketch and waterolour of the Quay and Boatyard at Polruan in Cornwall.

Fowey across the river is better known but a short passenger ferry ride – or longer drive- takes you to Polruan. This is perhaps a better place to visit if you like to get away from the more obvious tourist spots.

For me the Boatyard is the star attraction but it also has some quieter pubs and an impressively steep main road with some good views from the heights.

Another of my paintings -‘Polruan Boats’ is elsewhere on this site – and also a smaller view below.
