The scallop shell is an iconic symbol of pilgrimages, its lines metaphorically representing the different routes travelled from all over the world, with all trails leading to one point…

Halfway down the stairs
Is a stair
Where I sit.
There isn’t any
Other stair
Quite like
It.

The welcome and strong sense of community that we are feeling as new owners of the Customs House grows every day - especially when kind locals entrust you with treasures that have been in their family for a very long time.

We are so grateful to Ted and Jan Habner for their gift of historic photographs and postcards. They will be cherished here ⚓️
