Good Morning Guys,........Beachy head Eastboune Sussex S UK
This splendid place is identical to the White cliffs at Dover!! only a bit more upmarket!! there is a cafe and pub to cater for the hundreds of visitors each day it is a designated nature reserve, i have ever only seen birds and sheep!! there are nature trails to wander along before a visit to the pub!! there are of course, down on the beach, fossils to be found among the chalk and stones, if you are fit enough for the climb each way!! a lighthouse finishes off the scene quite resplendent as if it was in charge!! the one downside, it's the most popular place in the UK to commit suicide!! no idea why these troubled souls choose here!! there is a part time volunteer to try and talk potential "jumpers" to change their minds!!! Cheers Guys ![]() ![]() [hidden image - please register] |

Apart from being a magnlficent castle the grounds also boast of a Nature Trail below the castle walls it is situated on quite steep ground but still a nice pleasant walk around the walls. mainly nesting sea birds a few more species are also seen nesting House martins use the gaps between the stones of the wall to nest the castle is the main tourist attraction but nature is playing her part here as well! regards guys ![]() ![]() [hidden image - please register] |
