Kent Coast

The first time i have adventured out since the lock down restrictions have been lifted. I took a trip to the Kent coast in the morning and before the rain started .

Wish I was there. Lovely and deserted.
Oh to get my legs in the sea!
I do like image 3 best with that foreground puddle.
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing, Keith. That deserted building looks impressively dilapidated. Whereabouts is it? Your website looks interesting. Good luck with it.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the comments the pictures where taken along the coast in Leysdown-on-Sea.

I holidayed on the Isle of Sheppy when I was a youngster (oh, those were the days!). If I remember rightly it was a bleak place and the chalet we stayed in was small. But it got us out of London!

We had relatives who ran a farm close to Leydowns. (Several years later they moved to a farm across the valley from Biggin Hill Airport.)

I haven't returned to IofS since my childhood but I would like to visit Sheerness. Hence no photographs!

I missed it first time around but the BBC is repeating Countryfile which features Elmley Nature Reserve on the Isle of Sheppy.

The time may not be ideal but …

At least they don't conflict with CCC virtual meetings.

At least they don't conflict with CCC virtual meetings.

They should also be available on Iplayer for a while after the first broadcast on Sunday.
