Supplies come in by the little ferry and residents each have their transport at hand to haul it from the jetty.

The fishermen built platforms out of pebbles from the beach on which to dry their catch. Some have been uncovered. The dried cod was shipped to France.

Of the few houses that are left, some are lived in, a few are museums. There used to be 2 rows of cottages with access at their backs to the sea and between them space to dry the cod.

Took a trip on the ferry over to this island that used to be home to over 600 people back in the days of the cod fishery. St Pierre in the background.

Not everybody travels in luxury ... this French guy is on his second circumnavigation!

These contraptions are all around the edge of the little inner bay for people to haul and launch their little boats.

Old houses outside town wouldn't look amiss in the Camp (countryside in the Falklands)

Lots of the older houses are still clad in shiplap or shingles. The new 'estate' on the other side of the harbour looks just like Sapper Hill!

A lot of similarities with the Falklands here - building styles old and new, and the lack of trees!

An early approach is always special
