One of Sophie's favourite places, Scott’s Quay lies on the Helford River roughly a mile from the village of Constantine, close to Falmouth. It was built in the early 1800s by Charles Scott.

Scott was a wealthy landowner who lived at the manor of Trewadreva and owned a number of mines and quarries in the area. He saw an opportunity to move large quantities of minerals and stone via a system of merchant schooners on the river. So he built himself a quay.
