EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hillside view of St Brelades Bay in the Channel Islands captures the picturesque white-walled houses that line the coast. The name of this beautiful bay is believed to have been derived from a 6th-century Celtic or Welsh saint named Branwalator or Saint Brelade. According to legend, Saint Brelade was the son of the Cornish king, Kenen, and a disciple of Samson of Dol. He is said to have worked with this churchman in Cornwall and the Channel Islands. The name of the saint is believed to have been passed down through the centuries, and the bay remains a popular pilgrimage site for those seeking spiritual connection. The tranquil waters of St Brelades Bay offer a serene retreat for visitors, with its sandy beach and crystal-clear waters providing the perfect setting for swimming, sunbathing, and relaxation. The hillside view showcases the charming architecture of the white-walled houses, which add to the unique character of this idyllic location. This photograph, taken circa 1900, is a beautiful reminder of the rich history and natural beauty of St Brelades Bay in the Channel Islands.
