Cornwall has changed a lot over the years and some places are completely unrecognisable from their heydey, so can you guess where this ancient footage was filmed? The shaky black and white film shows a Cornish life that we can only dream of, as the sleepy fishing village is positively calm. Just one artist is standing on the harbour wall in the undated clip - slowly painting a ship that is moored nearby. Seagulls can be heard throughout though, so not everything is different from today.
The beach is eerily quiet, with a lone fisherman untangling a net as a swarm of herring gulls descend on a pipe discharging onto the shingle beach. Finally, the camera pans around and shows a group of 12 leaning on the railing overlooking the beach, before finally zooming in on a pub's sign - which reads Ship Inn, above the familiar named ' Ales'. Previously, we that showed Harbour that demonstrated how much things have changed - from the bright and colourful fashion sense to the drastically different harbour front of today.
The onlookers are dressed in a mix of '70s chic with an array of bright blues and yellows - they would have looked out of place five years ago but now they'd probably fit in fine. The cameraman then pans over to the right where there's a long promenade with a huge boathouse, home to the Newquay Rowing Club - which has since been moved. The rowing club is now located on the other side of the beach, nearer the ice cream van at the start of the clip.
The promenade is now home.
