The Horse Shoe Bite
The small sandy beach at Newhaven was known as the horse shoe bite. It was completely covered at high tide, but as the water receded, it exposed fine golden sand, ideal for making castles and getting in your sandwiches. A row of ...Read more

Taken from the Blue Anchor Hotel's balcony, this view looks across its garden to the promenade.
The Ship was described as one of the 'three good inns' of Mundesley in 1845. Among the facilities offered by the hotel were a quoits bed and bowling green.
The parish church is of flint, with a large west tower.
A southern pavilion was added to the seaward end of Eastbourne's pier in 1888 - late Victorian visitors expected piers to be more than just a promenade or an occasional venue for entertainment.
The tramway offered holiday-makers an alternative means of escape from the beach to the Esplanade, other than by the 224 steps cutting through the Spa Gardens, and all for just 1d.
Margate is today a bustling seaside resort on the Isle of Thanet, with many miles of sandy beaches, and typical seaside attractions.
We view the town from the beach below the Royal Standard. The North Wall (right centre) has since been joined to the mainland (in 1979) by a random wall of rough boulders.
Church Cove was a pilchard fishing place, with boats hauled up the steep beach, and there was also a lifeboat station here for a while until 1899.
This magnificent view was taken from the east. The stooks lend period atmosphere to the harvest scene; the view today is far more built-up.
Redcar's popularity for the past 150 years has largely depended upon the attractions of the sea and the beach. A group of roundabouts and swings offers entertainment for the children.
Rows of fishing boats are mostly aground where they are moored in the harbour. Smaller boats are drawn right up to the buildings in the background, for the Wharf wall had not yet been built.
Incredible numbers of peo- ple crammed aboard paddle steamers such as the 'Empress' (centre) which has just arrived in Lulworth Cove.
This scene is characteristic of the North Norfolk coast: the walls and houses are built of whole flints found in the fields or on the nearby beach.
The small beach to the left is at Prechers Rock.
The only attractions on offer here are boat trips and donkey rides; to the far right, on the water's edge, are a number of wheeled bathing machines.
A substantial shingle beach this may be, but it offers no protection to the sandy cliffs. All Saints' Church now stands at the edge, soon to join the lost medieval town in a watery grave.
We are looking along the Benthills road towards Aldeburgh. A variety of impressive cars have parked, possibly marking the advent of day trippers, which Ogilvie did not really want.
Motor launches are moored at the landing stages and are taking on passengers. These stages had to be manhandled up and down the beach as the tide went out and came in.
Specimens of 'Little Trees', a species of deep water coral so named because of its shape, are sometimes washed up on the beach at Crackington.
The cliff on the right now has a row of houses at the top.
Exmouth's long sea front and sandy beaches made sea-bathing a popular recreation from the town's earliest days as a resort. Tourists came for the bracing air and social activities.
The new housing developments of both pre- and post-war Britain most often came with a small parade of shops to serve the new residents.
Newlyn was the first Cornish town to attract the attention of artists.
Trading schooners are beached, waiting for their cargo to be taken ashore by horse and cart.
