The Prince of Wales at The Lands End, Cornwall, 1865. Having partaken of an excellent luncheon, the Prince of Wales proceeded, in a two-horse carriage, to the Lands End, accompanied by Mr. John St. Aubyn and the noblemen and gentlemen of his suite...He stepped out of his carriage, and, in company with bis friends, went, on foot, to the rocks which constitute the western extremity of England, and are literally the Lands End...The Prince and his small party passed down the grass-covered slope leading to the terminal rocks, which form a perpendicular precipice, 60 ft. above a sea which heaved and tossed, almost angrily, below, even in such calm sunny weather. The Prince lingered some time among the rocks, which were seen to the best advantage. The day could not have been clearer. Numerous ships sailed by under a light wind, and many aquatic birds, occasionally screaming but most sullenly watchful, added greatly to the interest and wild character of the views. The Longships Rock Lighthouse, which is 50 ft. in height, was gracefully conspicuous, the rock on which it stands being about 60 ft. above the water...Around the enormous stone bastions of the cliffs the green water expended itself in foam among the splintered rocks. From "Illustrated London News", 1865.
