St Catherine’s Castle – OS Wallpaper Download November 2025

Located near Fowey on the south coast of Cornwall, St Catherine’s Castle is a small 16th-century artillery fort with stunning views over the sea and Readymoney Cove. Perched on a headland, it’s a great stop on scenic walking routes along the South West Coast Path. The site offers a peaceful spot to explore historic ruins and enjoy panoramic vistas.

This month’s OS Wallpaper image is from outdoor enthusiast Dan Smedley aka @bimblingbooksbeer. Take a look at his series where Dan explores some of the best routes from our Outstanding Circular Walks in Cornwall Pathfinder Guidebook.
