In our video today, we take a wander around the beautiful coastal town of St. Ives, walking along the stunning beaches, ridiculously narrow streets and back alleyways.
Armed with a couple of books, we take a look at the attitude to bathing in the 1940s and recount a wonderful story of star-crossed lovers - our very own Cornish Romeo and Juliet! We had great fun matching up a few photos of then and now and exploring the history of the Lambeth Walk.
And finally, have you heard of the famous green door in St Ives? We thought it was an ideal opportunity to seek it out and try to discover what all the fuss us about!
Where else can you watch a video about St Ives which covers stories ranging from a true life Cornish Romeo and Juliet, an antique door, feet washing and Widdy-waddying?
The standard description bit…
We are Sarah and Andrew and we film our walks around Cornwall and publish on KZitem, usually weekly. Sometimes we stay in accommodation in Cornwall and upload our vlog. Sarah is fascinated by sea glass and likes to collect it so there may be the occasional sea glass video too. The channel is a hobby and we both have normal day jobs!
We love your comments and read all of them. We also answer as many as possible. Unfortunately, we cannot answer comments received more than a week after publication.
Frequently asked questions:
What are your dogs called?
Sorry but we do not release the names of our dogs but perhaps you could make up a name for them!
What camera do we use?
Since December 2018 we have used: Canon Powershot G7x MkII
How do I find the books you use?
Most are still in print although some we pick up in charity shops and may be available on Amazon secondhand. Please refer to the video for the book titles. Every video shows the book three times. Sorry but we can’t put a link in every description.
Best time of year to visit Cornwall?
We love May, June for flora and fauna, July and September for spectacular scenery.
