The Devils Frying Pan, Cadgwith / page 1
Cadgwith, The Lizard, Cornwall

Walk up on the path (with the sea on your left) or up the first road then left to the cliff edge, then along the coastal path to The Devils Frying Pan. It is s a truly stunning site. Formed when a cave collapsed leaving a arch of rock connecting both sides. (please take care with children as the few metres of path near the Flying pan is unfenced and near the edge)

Above: The Devils Frying Pan, where the collapse of a sea cave has led to the creation of a 100 metre deep hole. (photo at high tide, in February)

In the other direction from Cadgwith, a circular nature trail takes you through the Poltesco Valley. Along the trail there are the remains of an old serpentine factory (which closed in the 1890's) at Carlton Cove.
