More about this scene

In a manner typical of this coastline, the soft red sandstone has been blasted into grotesque shapes by the constant battering of wind and wave. Note the winch alongside the nearest boat. This would be used to haul the few fishing boats from the water. Lobster pots at the base of the cliff indicate the type of fishing undertaken.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

I spent many of my younger years in the 60s at Ladram bay . One particular afternoonI took out a small Dingey with a Dutch friend and we did not arrive back until dark Only to see many lights on the beach we jumped out of the Dingey and started to help people push boats into the ocean asking the question what’s happening only to be told there are two boys lost at sea and we are are going out to try to find them .
