|
| Old Harry. Sea white with the chalk. At first we couldn't detect any damage from the recent storms but... |
|
|
| Just compare these two picture. The top one taken in March 12 and the second one now. You will see a whole section to the right of the narrow path has fallen into the sea. Even more dangerous now! |
|
|
| Old Harry's wife is still there. |
|
|
| That fabulous view of Swanage Bay |
|
| Walking along Swanage Beach |
|
|
| Lots of damage done by the recent cliff falls. Beach strewn with debris from broken beach huts. I don't think these almost brand new beach houses have long.... |
|
| Swanage main beach in the sun |
|
| Wellington Clock Tower with Swanage beyond. The tower used to stand at the the southern end of London Bridge but was moved to Swanage in 1867. The clock never arrived! |
|
| Peverill Point and its Coastguard Station |
|
| Our favourite seafood hut - Gee Whites - has been demolished and a new one is being built. Looks very stylish. Hope the oysters are as good! |
