Alnmouth beach, Northern England.

These concrete cubes were placed on Alnmouth beach during WWII to impede the progress of any German invasion. They are very photogenic and have a brutalist nature to them. They make good hiding places for kids playing on the beach and they make handy seats for adults.

Sea defences at New Brighton and Fort Perch in the background.

This looked very unpromising on the screen but has come out better than I hoped.

Bonchurch bay Scenes

Tickhill castle is 11C that was owned by King John with later work constructed by Eleanor of Aquitaine. Defended in Civil War by royalists, then captured and razed in 1648 to make it indefensible. It has one of the the oldest gatehouses in UK. The castle is owned by the Duchy of Lancaster which provides income to the Soverign (King Charles) and is only open on one day a year. View is through Norman gatehouse with view of motte beyond.

Stark and rugged, rock and concrete sea defences at Sheringham. A guy looks out over the windswept scene, keeping watch...maybe, spots the photographer.....a potential invader....maybe....but for just for one week.

The third 25 of my 2020 100x project, where x=plant defences and protection - all from home except the Horse Chestnut found nearby, more protection than defence with just a few prickles and spines...

Well past it's best.

Bosham, West Sussex

Very often we're looking for pretty rocks or elegant piers for seascapes, but in this instance I liked the rugged pile of rocks with a chimney peeping over. This was from a cold and windy day in August 2011.
