A hard hill to get up, but the views are worth it

Lovely views up lewesdon hill

The coast at Seatown is part of the Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage Site. The surrounding area is also designated part of the Dorset National Landscape. Golden Cap, the highest point on the south coast of England, lies 1 mile (1.6 km) to the west. Seatown comprises a small number of houses, a holiday park, some holiday cottages and a pub. The small River Winniford or Wynreford runs into the sea here. Seatown beach is popular with fossil collectors, with rock of Late Jurassic/Early Cretaceous. The beach is privately owned; access to it is free, but there is a charge for car parking. 'Furmity'—a mix of wheat, dried fruit and sugar, often with added spirits—was one of the products sold at a Whit Monday Fair which used to be held in Seatown. The current Anchor Inn and the neighbouring cottages are rebuildings of their earlier equivalents which had been destroyed in the Great Storm of 1824. In the little Hamlet is the seatown slice, a spar shop and a beachside sauna.

Ancient old trackway that unfortunately looks like it has been damaged by off-road vehicles and water erosion. Almost impossible to ride in many places. Shame.

Very tasty, especially very good chips!

Farmer has been doing a bit of landscaping to this section. Logs have been moved to the side and are behind an electric fence.

If it's been raining recently, probably best deferred to another time. The surface can be very slippery when damp.

Shute's Lane (this section) is widely regarded as the finest example of an ancient trail, eroded by use and rainfall over the years, with this particular one being 10 metres below the 'normal' ground level. It is stunning .... and look out for the spectacular graffiti too! Watch this video: https://youtu.be/EU1APfAw8Ss
