Windswept tree
Quite a common site along this coast. The prevailing south west wind has a profound effect on the growth of this tree, a hawthorn I think.
Birnbeck Pier
This now derelict pier is just north of Weston and is the only one in the country that connects the mainland to an island, Birnbeck Island. It is a grade 2 listed building which has been closed since 1994 and is due to be developed when the council and the owners unlock horns. It used to be a boarding point for steamers plying their trade in the Bristol Channel, and is still home to the Lifeboat Station, in theory anyway.
Bus Rally
Going back along the front, their was a rally of old buses. This is my pick of the bunch and thanks to the steward for holding the bike. I dont think the owner would have appreciated me leaning it up against this gleaming machine.
That folks, is an an update of photos that was promised.
