Description
A former fisherman's cottage, Capstan Cottage, Sennen Cove near Land's End in Cornwall is a grade II listed thatched cottage dating back to the 18th century.
It is situated behind the Round House, the old capstan house at the top of the harbour which was probably built in the 18th century and made higher in the 19th century. The walls are built from granite rubble with tarred weather boarding above and a slate conical roof. Inside, on the ground floor, is a capstan that was operated by a team of men. It was originally in the open and the building was built over it. The capstan was used to wind up chains attached to the fishing boats. The chain pulled the boats up the very steep slope from the harbour. The top floor was used as fishermen's stores.

Love the character of these old villages. So wonderful they haven't been bulldozed and made into a modern urban or suburban sprawl like in America.
