More about this scene
Chesil Beach, seen here from the Isle of Portland, is a great ridge of shingle eight miles long, with a lagoon of brackish water between it and the mainland. Its stones tend to be much larger at one end than the other. John Meade Faulkner immortalised the area in his famous smuggling novel 'Moonfleet'.
