Ferry Boat Inn
Could this be the answer Bev? It looks very different in your photo...but then it's over half a century between the pics...I was probably only 18 months old...and if you look carefully at the top pic, you can see Pete baptising me in beach sand!
Ferry Boat, yes (you can just make out you, me, and Mother immediately below the hotel doorway). But you're way off the mark with the top pic - I think that was the Isle of Wight - it was definitely not Cornwall. The Ferry Boat has changed a bit but the little beach is still exactly the same.
I knew that really....just wanted an excuse to show how my Big Bro mistreated me, so when I pour sand over his wheelchair in forty years time, no one will blame me! I hadn't spotted us in the other pic...eagle eyes. These pics are scanned from some of the slides from the farm - when I have enough done I will put them on a CD and send them to you and Pete.

Now you can prove Sand-on-the-brain I think you can probably sue.
I love the studied concentration on Pete's face! This really made me laugh. It's a wonder you're here at all, Chip!
