This rundown building once housed the Mary Stanford lifeboat. It stands on the shore near Rye Harbour and is a grade 2 listed building. The old lifeboat house has remained unused since 15th November 1928...
Seascape

Frosty Morning
I took a walk through my local woods to take these pictures. It was cold. When I took this picture the moon appeared much larger when I looked at it with my naked eye. This I’ve learnt is an optical…
The East Hill, Hastings
Although I’ve been on the East Hill, Hastings many times in my life, I’ve never really thought about it’s history, despite there being the remains of an Iron Age fort sat right on top of it. Whilst researching something interesting…
