      From a bit further up the coast, a 6th- or 7th-century Byzantine coin found several inches down in a rock pool on Perranporth beach: https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/469910 …pic.twitter.com/k0AtkNOQlg

      Of course, the St Ives Bay finds of Mediterranean imports are part of a wider picture of such finds in 5th- to 6th-century Cornwall and western Britain & Ireland in general: http://www.caitlingreen.org/2018/01/st-ia-of-st-ives-byzantine-saint.html … & http://www.caitlingreen.org/2017/03/a-very-long-way-from-home.html …pic.twitter.com/FiwY1ISXaJ

      For interest, a topographic map of the area around St Ives Bay, showing the two significant rivers emptying into the bay, both of which have important sites producing 5th-/6th-century eastern Mediterranean imports on them: http://en-gb.topographic-map.com/places/Hayle-3844143/ …pic.twitter.com/kI5W5mZNHA

      Interestingly, the only Roman villa currently known from Cornwall, at Magor Farm nr Camborne (excavated 1931–2), was located on the northern river valley emptying into St Ives Bay… http://www.pastscape.org.uk/hob.aspx?hob_id=426186 …pic.twitter.com/jmEOBcpQI8

      The Hayle estuary also has notable Roman finds, including this copper bowl containing a hoard of Roman coins, found at Hayle, Cornwall, in 1825 by workman building the causeway.pic.twitter.com/WKKJ3HgUan

      Perhaps of particular interest given the 5th-/6th-century eastern Mediterranean finds from St Ives Bay are a number of 4th-century Roman coins from eastern mints also found at Hayle, e.g. https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/101765 …pic.twitter.com/LuR8CH5MCw

      Strange to think that many think the South West of the UK to be a remote part of the country.

      (Perhaps it's our shift to overland transport that does it? Might similarly lie behind Lincolnshire's current perceived remoteness as compared to its status as one of the richest parts of pre-Viking England?!)

          Absolutely! Changes in perception of remoteness would be an interesting topic.
