Further to the notes in MW issue 21 by David Harfield and myself, as well as finding fresh dead shells at the old St Andrew Church ruins below Pensylvania Castle, empty shells also occurred under stone walling alongside the steps down to Church Ope Cove. Also several hundred metres away in the Pen Weare, on a rock pile covered with sparse ivy and brambles I found several long dead, damaged shells.
Finally, a number of years ago I was visiting Truro docks in Cornwall and found an empty shell of H. Cinctella at the south end of the docks under a boundary fence, by the access road. This also was covered in sparse ivy and brambles.
