Hellfire Corner

This is where I go every year for a spot of Wild Sea Swimming. In the shadow of the huge chalk cliffs on a balmy summer evening there is nothing I like better than hobbling across the tumbled flint pebbles and swimming out into the English Channel to look back at the lights coming on in the houses along the cliff. The warm glow of the Coast Guard Pub (formerly The Green Man) lures you back for a Spiced Rum on the verandah as the sun sets. My ultimate nostalgic summer pastime with so many happy memories attached.
