• Five Go To Demon's Rocks

    Last day !
    Family outing to Old Harry Rocks - three chalk formations, including a stack and a stump, located at Handfast Point, on the Isle of Purbeck . They mark the most eastern point of the Jurassic Coast

    Old Harry actually refers to the single stack of chalk standing furthest out to sea. Until 1896 there was another stack known as Old Harry’s Wife, but erosion caused her to tumble into the sea, leaving just a stump.

    Old Harry is supposedly named after a smuggler who would sail past that rock every time he left or came back to port.

    It’s sunny and blowing on the walk along the coastal path to peep at Swanage then it’s downhill to some libation at Bankes Arms !
    Then it’s home ! The end !
