The Beaches of East Cornwall - E24 - Spit Beach, Par

OS Explorer Map 107 St Austell & LiskeardOS Explorer Map 107 St Austell & Liskeard

This map is part of the Ordnance Survey's Explorer series designed to replace the old Pathfinder map series. At 1:25,000 scale this detailed map shows a host of attractions including gardens which are open to the public, nature reserves and country parks as well as all official footpaths, bridleways, roads and lanes. Other facilities covered include: camping and caravan sites, picnic areas and viewpoints, selected places of interest, rights of way information for England and Wales, National Trail and Recreational Path routes, and selected tourist information. The series is aimed mainly at the experienced map user but can be used by tourists and locals alike.

Location: South Coast - near Par, St. Austell.

Approaching Spit Point, Par

A small beach lying just seaward of the giant Imerys (English China Clays) drying works at Spit Point just west of Par Sands. The whole area is rather industrial and several ruined buildings litter the immediate environment. Not really a beach on which to bathe. Visit Par Sands or nearby Polkerris instead
