Rock got its name from a local quarry where rocks were used as ballast by ships that had unloaded the cargo at Padstow; this quarry has now been replaced as a car park. In recent years Rock has seen great investment brought into this small town, bringing all kinds of celebrities to buy second homes here including Royal Family members, and now Rock is often referred to as ‘Chelsea-on-Sea’ with there being multiple million-pound homes, villas, and apartments hidden amongst the trees on the edge of the cliffs.
