Devil's Bellows - A Glimpse into the Mystical Legends of Cornwall's Coastline
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, captured in 1907 by Alfred Newton and Sons, transports us to the enchanting Kynance Cove in Mullion, Cornwall. Known as "Devil's Bellows" this breathtaking natural wonder has long been steeped in folklore and tales of ancient legends. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image from the Historic England Archive, our eyes are drawn to the rugged beauty of the sea crashing against towering cliffs. The untamed power of nature is palpable here, evoking a sense of both awe and trepidation. According to local lore, Devil's Bellows earned its name from a mythical creature said to dwell within these very rocks. Legend has it that when waves crash forcefully against the cliffs during stormy weather, an eerie howling sound emerges from deep within - resembling none other than the bellowing voice of Satan himself. But beyond its mystical reputation lies a picturesque coastal landscape that beckons adventurers and nature lovers alike. The dramatic rock formations jutting out into turquoise waters create a scene straight out of a painting. This historic photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with folklore and our connection to nature's wonders. It invites us to explore further into Cornwall's rich heritage while igniting our imagination with tales whispered by generations past.
