More about this scene

The name of this village means 'Walhbert's farm', and dates from at least Saxon times. Two people take a rest on the remains of a long disused jetty, momentarily alone with their thoughts, whilst the full ebb tide exposes barnacle-crusted timbers, and leaves sailing boats lying to fore and aft moorings.

Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

Walking with Bob my border collie through the salt marshes and dunes. Listening to the birds in the marshes and trying not to get lost! Keeping Bob away from people as he's a very cautious rescued border collie. The sense of peace whenever I have returned here. Now sadly without my dearest brave Bob but always remembered.
