The Long Walk To Hire A Trike
Millport to me was, as I'm sure it was to most who have visited over the years a place where cars were few and pedal power ruled. All my memories of Millport as a child involved a long walk over the hill from the ferry, ...Read more

This view looks north along the beach.
This view looks north along the beach.
Here we see a very busy Ramsgate beach.
The sands of Tolcarne Beach, or Crigga, are crowded with holidaymakers, whose comforts are catered for by teashops and abundant beach tents.
With its broad greens, its sandy beach, the lighthouse on North Green, and its picturesque buildings, Southwold has long been popular.
The Golden Sands were of course only exposed at low tide beyond the shingle, but as a name for the beach it was a winner, combined with plentiful parking on the greensward behind the beach huts.
Two of Westgate's leading hotels were the Beach House Hotel on the left, and the large St Mildred's Hotel and Bathing Establishment (centre).
Steps from the Highcliffe (right) descend to the beach at North Swanage, beyond the promenade (upper centre) where the cliffs are skirted by beach huts.
Hotels and boarding houses stand right on the cliff edge overlooking the beach and harbour area.
Here we see the wide expanse of sandy beach, ideal for family holidays.
This popular bay and beach lies to the west of Mumbles.
Fish being gutted on the harbour beach, long before modern hygiene laws came into play.
Exmouth's sandy beaches might have been made for the traditional 'bucket and spade' holiday.
Angmering-on-Sea is a modern residential area with a quiet beach.
Another crowded scene on the South Beach close to the Spa, whose ornateness and splendour is clear to see.
Barricane Beach, also known as Shell Beach, is small and difficult to reach.
The beach is packed with visitors and day- trippers from St Austell, while in the foreground children and their parents are model boating and fishing around the rock pools.
The putting green lies above Porthminster Beach.
Here on the beach at the Isle of Grain smugglers would land their booty to be transported to London.
The amount of activity on the beach speaks for itself and it is interesting to note the well used beach huts on the right of the picture.
Most folk, however, came to enjoy the beach, which offered the simple charms of beach huts and occasional donkey rides, and was far less crowded than its neighbours at Cromer and Sheringham
It is a busy beach in the Swinging Sixties: these people are not day trippers to Heysham, but guests of Middleton Towers who have made their way to the beach for a day of free activity and entertainment
Paddling in streams and pools on the beach was popular in Victorian times.
Here we see the post-1953 sea wall, stepped here to allow access to the beach.
