Penlee Point, Mousehole

Penlee Point (Cornish: Penn Legh, meaning ‘stone-slab headland’) is a promontory near the coastal fishing village of Mousehole in west Cornwall, England, UK.

In 1883, Mr J Runnalls employed seventy people at the Penlee quarries and stone-mills.

Stone was exported to Welsh ports instead of ballast and to Bristol, Ipswich, London and Lowestoft for roads.

Stone to London was taken weekly by steamer from Penzance and by sailing vessels from Mousehole.
