Hiking

Augustus Smith, the Lord Proprietor of the Scillys, collected the Halleon figures of the ships stranded there in the 19th century. Many ships met their end here due to the rocky reefs, so the collection is correspondingly rich. Most of the figures have explanation boards, which ships they came from, and some also have photos of the wrecks.
