That's a joke right? Please tell me no-one would be fool enough to think that would be appropriate for the Lawn.
I saw them up close in Norway a few years ago, they were magical. If we saw them as a matter of course in this country I wonder if we might all calm down a bit? Without doubt Devon offers food for the soul too, do we end up taking such things for granted when there's easy access to them?
In that case JC, I was referring specifically to the appearancec of the railway wall and I'm disappointed to see that such an iconic and beautiful stretch has been scarred by the concrete sections. As you point out, it's a railway wall and not a seawall, therefore even more reason to think it could have been restored more sympathetically.
No JC, I've seen it but I was hoping the concrete was merely the substrate which would be clad in material similar to the original 'cobble' appearance. Weathering won't achieve that. And Pete, sleaze off will you.
Maybe I should appreciate that the sea wall is being rebuilt full stop but I'm massively disappointed by the concrete sections which are more akin to what you see on a new motorway. I thought the work would have been sympathetic to the original wall and faced off to match, not patched up.
Out of interest how do you maintain it? We seemed to have so much rain last winter that it's hard to imagine it drying out. Does central heating cause problems?
My birthplace is in my DNA but I'm British. These islands are too small to be divvying them up even further. What next, devolution by county?
You'll have to keep us in the picture Stephen, I'm ashamed to say I haven't coughed up the £20 subscription. What's the crane for?
