Further back are many fishing boats that are an anchor, to the left a seawall path that leads out Smeatons Pier. The pier and the original lighthouse are both named after John Smeaton, the civil engineer who designed the structures.

When the extension was complete a new 9 metre tall lighthouse was built at the end. Smeaton's Pier has a reservoir at its base that fills up at high tide to reduce wave action in the harbour. The 3 arches were designed to circulate seawater to prevent the build-up of sand. St Ives Harbour is a beautiful and safe place to swim and observe local fishermen come in to land their catch.

Circa 21st century dated August 06 for 2006. Set in original contemporary frame. About the artist, Linda Weir is a St. Ives based painter whose expressionistic, paintings depict colour, pattern, form, movement and texture, all tangled up with memory. Layering oil paint, Linda's distinctive style develops from her rush to capture the moving changes -'to capture the boats before they leave, the sun before it sinks beyond Carnstabba hill and the fisherman to go out or come in'.

Born in Manchester in 1951, Linda studied at manchester Metropolitan University before going on to receive an MA in Fine Art from Nottingham Trent University. She moved to Cornwall in 2005 where she produces impasto oils, all'en plain air'.
