Satellite dishes on the wild landscapes of the Lizard. Searching for intelligent life out there somewhere because there's not enough down here

Goonhilly Earth Station was once the largest satellite earth station in the world and has played a pivotal role in communications systems. The first dish, known as Arthur was constructed in 1962 to communicate with Telestar, the first active communication satellite. More than 60 antennas were present by 2006. No longer owned by BT, the site is being run by a private company to develop deep-space communication.

Gweek village green is a great spot to stop for a picnic beside the creek. There are benches to sit and enjoy the creekside views. The village store is not far from here. Gweek is the head of the Helford River and was once a thriving port. Mining ore was exported from Gweek, and coal and timber were imported for the mines.

The construction is mainly of rubble stone, with some large blocks of granite and serpentine in the tower. There are separate slates, steeply pitched roofs for the nave, chancel, sacristy and porch.
