Along the Jurassic Coast

As we head towards the end of the year time seems to fly by even faster .......

This week the weather seems to have been quite good and instead of sitting inside working on a project to encourage everyone to explore more, we followed our own advice and managed lots of walks along the Jurassic coast.

The rock formations vary in each location and provide a completely different feeling and walk along the seashore - from the golden honeycomb cliffs at West Bay, which were a starring part in Broadchurch.

To the white chalk cliffs on the border of Devon.

To the black  clay fossil filled cliffs at Charmouth.

I always find the black clay rocks quite magnificent but quite forbidding. Can you see the West Bay cliffs in the distance?

There is always something different to discover on the beaches especially at low tide from fresh water, to ship wrecks and unusual rocks the one above made me think of Vienetta Ice-cream!

Fossils discovered are dug out and taken away. lucky some are just too large and they can be enjoyed and marvelled at in their natural surroundings.

 I was also surprised to discover a fallen leaf amongst the pebbles, it's not often we find leaves on the beach even in Autumn. Have you out exploring around your homes too?

Until next time.
