Another section draughted, from Kimmeridge to Lulworth. This wasn’t too onerous, as I have been basically rewriting an article I wrote about this coast last year.
The photo shows Heather paddling through Bat Hole, a natural tunnel through the monolithic buttress cliff of Bat Head. The cliffs above featured in John Schlesinger’s 1967 film of Far from the Madding Crowd. Remember the opening scene when Gabriel Oak’s dog drives his herd of sheep over the edge? That was here. The film also featured Julie Christie. She is quite nice.
