Great view with some benches around, though most hidden in the shrubs 😊

Harnessing the power of moving water to drive a mill wheel is an ancient invention of human ingenuity, whose origins can be traced back to ancient times. Thanks to such a design, a watercourse – natural or artificial – made it possible to simply replace human or animal muscle power with the power of natural elements, for example, to grind grain into corn or press oil from fruit. There are essentially two drive variants for watermills: * Either the flowing water simply hits the blades of the water wheel from below to set it in motion; or * the water is guided above the wheel – usually through a so-called "mill channel" – and falls onto the blades. This design utilizes natural gravity to achieve greater efficiency.

A wonderful view of the fishing boats but I went off season and I am not sure what it would be like in the peak season.

Perfect day trip for wild life spotting

Beautiful walk and perfect opportunity to see wildlife

Sometimes you have to stop and just take a moment.

If you plan ahead, or if you are lucky, you can walk along the beach around Orcombe point when it is low tide. And from down here you are given a different perspective of the red cliffs of the jurrasic coast. The red sandstone cliif tower above you and boulders lay strewn across the beach from landslides in decades gone by. Continue walking the beach, being wedged between the sea and cliffs, but with plenty of space not to scare you, until you reach the slope up to Sandy bay park. Lots of refreshments await you, and the firework sound of gun fire, on a day when the troops test their rifles.

Highly recommended. Park in Lime kiln car park and 50 degrees north is a few minutes walk along the sea front. Be sure to visit the newly revamped wetlands adj to car park for a spot of bird watching and don’t forget your binos😀
