Seaside stories: Fowey in pictures

The town was once home to the Fowey Gallants, the seamen who raided France in the Hundred Years' War

Today Fowey plays host to yachts and cruise liners

In the harbour, only the seaweed is biting...

...but at least Cornish pasties are easy to find

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream

A glass of bubbly with your dropped chips, sir?

Shopping in Fowey: Catering for all tastes?

Cruise liners and container ships keep the tugs busy

Fowey Hall, the inspiration for Toad Hall in Kenneth Grahame's Wind in the Willows

All the world's a garden at the nearby Eden Project

Who needs the seaside when there's a tropical hothouse?

The honeycomb-shaped biomes are the bee's knees

The botanical attraction rakes in the crowds

But after a long day, it's back to base at Fowey...

...where a cruise liner is a tourist attraction in itself
