URPoint Details
The beach of shingle is two miles long and is known as Porthleven Sands.
There is a large inn dated from the 18th century and the Wesleyan chapel was built in 1890 and has an imposing façade and the villagers have a verse. ‘They built the church, upon my word, as fine as any abbey and then they thought to cheat the Lord and built the back part shabby’.
