Seafront at Kingsand, Cornwall
At this time of the year, in early December, there are very few visitors to be found at Cornwall's coastal villages, especially one such as Kingsand which is in any event well off the beaten track. Like its neighbouring village of Cawsand, it overlooks Plymouth Sound from the Rame Peninsula in the far south-east of Cornwall. This is the seafront (known as The Cleave) on a calm winter's day, but when the gales arrive this is definitely not the place to be. The cottages along here all have window shutters on the ground floor while several also have slots for flood defenders to protect the lower parts of the doors.
