Title

View from the end of Newlyn's South Pier looking towards the end of the North Pier.

Description

The lower part of Newlyn, ie., Street-an-Nowan, is seen in the background. The newly completed North Pier (Victoria Pier) is in the right foreground. This pier was later widened along its length. A Mount's Bay lugger is attempting to leave the harbour using a long oar, as it's not able to catch wind for the sails until clear of the harbour. Looks like an early steam boat alongside the pier.
