Charmouth, The River Char c.1960

More about this scene
The pebble beach beside Lyme Bay acts as a dam at Charmouth, and prevents the River Char from having a conventional estuary. The stream from the Marshwood Vale seeps out through the shingle bank. Sometimes, however, the weather does breach the pebbles, notably once with a flash flood, when this tranquil scene became a graveyard of floating caravans.
