Ancint trackways.

Hi Mirla,

As you know, Penwith is littered with ancient trackways, church paths and 'tinners' paths. When you refer to the Old St Ives Road, is this the pathway that runs from St Ives down to Zennor along the north coast? My understanding was that this was primarily a churchway, though of course it may based upon a much older route.

Also starting from Zennor is the Tinner's Path, which runs across Penwith to Mount's Bay.

I'm not sure which route you refer to when you say the 'Old Land's End Road'. This could be any of several pathways.

Do you have any more information other than just the names at this point?

I'll be down there in a week or so, and would be happy to try to check out some specific locations if you have them?
