Watch your footing: Remains of the mining industry are everywhere	Halfway down: The beach at Trevaunance Cove is coming into view	Turning the corner: This is St Agnes Head - or, at least, the top of it
Industrial archaeology: The remains of Wheal Coates are a popular spot to visit	Spectacular sands: a view down the coast towards Porth Towan	Just what you need: A good steep drop and climb at Sally's Bottom - towards the end of our day's walk
