Dorset. From Golden Cap.

I post these pictures of the natural beauty of our world to show how unique and irreplaceable it is. I’m simply presenting scenes I hope will please, and maybe inform, readers here.

Links to items mentioned can be found at the end of the post.

This one depicts part of the English coastal path from Golden Cap toward Charmouth on the Dorset coast. It’s a long and, at times, steep climb up to the top of this coastal hill which reaches up to 627 feet (191 metres). Mind you, the first time I climbed it, some years ago, I met a man on the flat summit using a long, wooden handled screwdriver to repair his wooden leg! So, it can be climbed even with that sort of disadvantage.

The small village of Charmouth sports a comfortable, sandy beach. It has a car park, a small café/gift shop, and public lavatories. To the east lies Bridport, and to the west you’ll find the famous fossil hunting town of Lyme Regis.

Please clap, comment, and share these posts to spread the joy of natural beauty so we reach as many people as we can. It just might help save our threatened environment. We need an increase in human respect for nature and maybe even evidence of the action we all should now be adopting in our daily lives to help prevent the current and potential disasters…
