  • Ambience Transport Interchange
    Due to the curve of the harbour and railway area there is plenty of opportunity for views of the backdrop as described in the Landscape and Setting section, and there are views from the north across the sea of parked cars to ships masts and the bottom of the Barbican area. From the south end the views are more fragmented, with the backs of properties on Market Jew Street, the Wharfside development and railway station all lost in a melee of cars, signs and traffic signals. The view of the Abbey Basin, although compromised by signs, some modern railings, poles and landscaping schemes, is one of the best known in Penzance, immortalised by Stanhope Forbes. Ambience Near to Wharfside and the bus & railway stations road traffic dominates, while at the southern end there is the added factor of this being a working harbour, usually bustling with workmen, cranes, forklift trucks, deliveries and boat movements. While outside the new development at Wharfside pavements are wide, it is often an intimidating environment for pedestrians, who are confined along Wharf Road to a relatively narrow pavement. Even around the Wharfside area where attempts have been made by local businesses to provide pleasant outdoor areas to eat, this is spoilt by constant traffic fumes. On a quiet day, though, there is opportunity to enjoy the historic structures, buildings and boats of the working harbour and the rhythm created by the tide. In the season the inner harbour, always kept with water, is host to visiting tall ships, one of the major attractions of the area.

We see ourselves as part of a story of the grace of God, made manifest in Cornwall, which stretches back many hundreds of years, possibly to the very earliest days of the Christian faith. It’s a story that calls us on into the future too, in loving mission, ministry and service. As we follow ‘The Saints Way’ we will be deeply committed to Christ and to all that he calls us to be and to do; and to Cornwall, this very special place with its own particular culture, history and identity. We can only follow that Way faithfully if we see it as our corporate calling, as the body of Christ. So we encourage ministers of the gospel to come and join us here who are committed to setting the whole people of God free in their God-given calling, to make Christ known here in Cornwall, today. So we seek clergy of missional imagination and heart; those with a pastoral passion for people and communities and their flourishing.
