St. Ives

Where to start with St. Ives?

The azure sea? The cerulean sky? The clotted cream ice-cream? The Fish? The Chips? The Pasties??

The Tate?

St. Ives was the chosen home of Barbara Hepworth, born and educated in Wakefield, she chose to work for most of her life in Cornwall. And why not? Dark Satanic mills versus the above?

The tiny Hepworth museum and garden is a delight containing, as it does, Dame Barbara's studio.
