A Change in Direction in 2025

After much thought I have decided not to do a monthly ' Through the Garden Gate' in 2025. Due to lack of time over the last few years my blog has mainly featured my garden rather than the wonderful Dorset coastal scenery that my blog is named after! I want to go back to my roots (no pun intended) and share more coastal images this year.

Although I was not born in Dorset, and spent most of my childhood in Germany, Dorset has been my home for over 40 years. Ten years ago we moved along the coast from Weymouth to West Bay. West Bay, originally known as Bridport Harbour is a small settlement along the famous World Heritage Jurassic Coast. The location has been featured in some film and TV series the most famous one which has been viewed around the world is Broadchurch, with our incredible cliffs playing a star role!

Over the past few years the cliffs have been eroding at an increasing rate thus cliff fall occured at the December and already tons of the debris have been washed away.

The River Brit enters the sea here and on cold mornings you sometimes get a thin layer of cloud as the river water flows into the sea.

 

Many thanks to everyone who has joined in with ' Through the Garden Gate' over the last 9 years, from all around the world, please continue to visit their blogs and beautiful gardens! If you are missing seeing a garden this was the first one in January 2016!
