- A look at Sennen in June 1945 in original colour film shot by James McKinley, a US Naval photographer. From the minefield, to various pillboxes, the coastguard lookout at Pedn-men-du with its generator hut (no, it wasn't a pillbox!), air raid bomb damage and a distant glimpse of the RAF Domestic Camp, we see Sennen at its finest.

What a beautiful piece of film!
Imagine what stories and memories of the war and our precious Cornwall the US photographer and sailor would have taken back home with him? Brothers and sisters in arms then, bothers and sisters still now.
