Polperro Net Loft
The Net Loft on Peak Rock is thought to be on the site of Polperro's 19th Century chapel. The lower part of the building was used for boat building and the upper floor was used to store sails and nets - hence the name. It fell into disuse during the late 20th Century and was restored in 2015-16 by the National Trust.
