More about this scene
A classic west Dorset view, showing Seatown and Golden Cap which, at 618 feet above sea level, is the highest cliff on the South Coast of England. Langdon Hill can be seen on the skyline (right of centre) at the heart of what is now the Golden Cap Estate of the National Trust. Here the River Winniford trickles through the shingle int the sea. Note the beach-huts on the landslipped cliff. The closest building to the water was the thatched Fishermen's Hut (left of centre) with the tiled Anchor Inn and thatched Anchor Cottages next (centre) and the Coastguard Station behind. The flagpole, with a yard-arm, was used to send signals. Staff lived in the four Guard House Cottages (right of centre). The verandah is on Seatown Villa (right).
