EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a breathtaking granite outcrop perched atop Carn Brea, Illogan, Cornwall, in the early 1900s. The rugged beauty of this geological wonder is enhanced by the presence of Carn Brea Castle on the left side of the image.

The rocky outcrop stands tall against an expansive backdrop, showcasing Cornwall's rich mining landscape and ancient sites.
