Description
The Elizabeth N is a beam trawler, built in 1984, which fishes out of Newly on the south coast of Cornwall.
The little shed next to the lighthouse on the end of the pier is the Newlyn Tidal Observatory, where sea level measurements have been made for 100 years, and the benchmark “zero elevation” against which the heights of all hills, mountains, buildings and much else on mainland Britain can be measured.
