Architectural design & build in Polruan

Polruan sits opposite Fowey across the river, accessible by passenger ferry, with a tightly packed slate-cottage village clinging to the cliffs above the harbour. Conservation Area covers the village core; AONB and Heritage Coast across Lanteglos parish. Cliff-edge sites face strict controls and access for any build is logistically tight.
