Lovely Stoke Fleming
We stayed at a clifftop house called Mill Meadow. Once we parked the car behind the wooden double gates, there was a pine-tree lined steep hill that led to the house and then to cliffs. I remember that pine smell when we ...Read more

English At Heart
I am an American who went to school in Chester in 1966/67. Rather, should I say, I was registered for school at Chester College. However, I can't say I was actually in the building very often. There just always seemed to be somewhere ...Read more

All of this area of the sea front is now part of the Exmouth Fun Park, a modest theme park for the young and not so young who want a break from the miles of sandy beaches.
Here a little Victorian girl poses among the rowing boats laid up on the beach at Arnside.
For many years it housed the famous antiquarian bookshop Beach's, which survived until 1999.
This view shows the sea-front and beach, looking towards the pier. The sands are replete with bathing machines, boats, children and ladies with parasols: Victorian seaside gentility.
Radnor Cliff was where many of the town's wealthy residents lived; here their houses overlook the beach, where a naval man appears to be getting his boat ready for sailing.
This is now Coral Beach, with made-up roads and caravans that look more like mobile homes.
Fishing boats lie at their moorings on the left, while a small cargo carrier lies moored just off the beach. Horses and carts were still the best way of loading and off-loading in a tidal harbour.
The beach could be reached by a series of steps known as 'The Hundred Steps'.
Even the dog looks as though it is enjoying itself, and the donkeys are certainly keeping busy on this beautiful beach.
Serried ranks of bathing tents and a crowded beach spell out summer fun at Broadstairs during the early twentieth century.
, unlike many south coast resorts, faces east; it is therefore possible to sit on hot sunny days without the glare of the afternoon sun in the face.This accounted for the popularity of the long beach
Children play at the south end of the beach. Beyond them is the headland on which the Borth war memorial was built after the First World War.
It was during this time that most of the wooden cottages and shops along Beach Road became the concrete amusements and shops we know today.
Giltar Point is an expanse of limestone projecting out into the sea at the end of Tenby's South Beach.
It was for many years the haunt of Dorset smugglers, who landed their cargoes on the nearby beach of Seatown.
The suspension bridge across to a house on the Island is still a feature of Newquay's Towan Beach. Note the bathing machines down by the water's edge on the extreme left.
Children with hoops play on the clifftop promenade, a breezy spot high above the beach. The octagonal building is a newspaper kiosk. Today, the east promenade overlooks the new Ramsgate Port.
Holidaymakers enjoy themselves on Margate Beach. Note the prams in the centre of the picture, and that virtually everyone seems to be fully clothed and wearing a hat of some sort.
Industry and leisure mix in this beach scene. In the foreground are Thames barges with their characteristic lee-boards - a form of offset keel which can be raised in shallow waters.
In the foreground on the beach is a Punch and Judy show, an evergreen attraction which here appears in danger of being swept away by the boisterous Bristol Channel swell.
Sandy Bay is Littleham's beach, offering some of the finest bathing on the East Devon coast.
East Runton offered visitors the same spectacular cliff scenery and ample beaches as its close neighbour, Cromer, but less of the noise and bustle.
