View from Lympne churchyard

Lympne is built on the site of the Roman fort and port Portus Lemanis, on the Saxon Shore. In subsequent centuries the lagoon below has become Romney Marsh. After  brunch at The Bistro at Lympne Castle, we wandered  the churchyard and I  snapped the view. 

Incidentally, Winston Churchill was one of many luminaries who were frequent visitors to Port Lympne, now a hotel and wild animal park. He relaxed by painting this view. 

 

On the beach

A few snapshots of a bright and mild winter's day in Dymchurch.

Sandgate Sunset

A trip into Folkestone for admin and non-exciting shopping. 

It was a particularly pleasant day, especially for January. Great to see so many people out and about.

We ate at Market Square. If I lived or worked in Folkestone, I'd be in there every week.

My companion ate Sticky BBQ Brisket Ramen and I had Root Veg Bhaji Burger.

Our drive back was perfectly timed. So I stopped twice, in Sandgate and on Princes Parade to shoot the sunset. The heavy plant, which had been doing beach repairs all day, was a photographic bonus.
