After what seems like 2 months of solid Cornish rain & drizzle, there was finally some sun expected to be visable at the sunrise, so I dashed off to one of my fave spots to film this clip.
It also gave me an oportunity to try out my new Avata 2 FPV drone for the first time. DEFINITELY more practice required!
Roche Rock is a 20-metre (66-foot) quartz-schorl outcrop east of the village. Roche is the Norman-French word for Rock. The rock is of interest to geologists as it is a fine example of quartz schorl; a fully tourmalinised granite, with black tourmaline crystals.
On top of Roche Rock is a ruined chapel (dedicated to St Michael) which is said to have been the abode of a leper or a monk. An 1881 description of the chapel still had a considerable portion of the masonry standing and one or two windows were fairly perfect, although the steps up to the chapel are roughly cut. Roche Rock has many folk-lore tales associated with it, the two most famous being the legend of Jan Tregeagle, a 17th-century magistrate, who after death found refuge in the chapel, and the other being part of the Tristan and Iseult tale.
