Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Monument to the cable laid to Brest in 1880, near Porthcurno. This conspicuous white pyramid sits alongside the coastal path on the cliffs east of Porthcurno. The plaque on the north-facing side explains that it was built in 1880 to commemorate the cable to Brest, France which came ashore somewhere nearby. Part of the open-air Minack theatre can be seen on the cliffs on the far right of this photo. http://www.atlantic-cable.com/CableCos/Porthcurno/PCWPPlaque_s.jpg
