Enough sunshine for now & back to this morning. This shot was taken from the shingle beach looking west from Goring Gap towards Ferring. We do have plenty of sand when the tide goes out. The large building is now a care home. On a clear day you can see the Isle of Wight from here. It was difficult to make out the horizon today.


I drove towards the care home before heading north. At the top of the road I turned left into the village of Ferring. This is the first thing you see. There don't seem many names until you realise that Ferring was only a tiny village until it was developed after WWII. The poppy wreaths are still in place from Nov 11th as they will remain until they look tatty.


Opposite the war memorial is this garage. The name will be familar to any motor enthusiast. Sadly, the great John Cooper died a couple of years ago. The business is now run by his son.



This traditional brick & flint cottage is for sale if you're interested.

That's it for now. I then headed for some old childhood haunts.

PS. I forgot to mention that Ferring is unusual in that, except for on the main road through the village, there are no street lights.

Doug, why do you do this to me?  What have I ever done to you? 

I just finished looking at your Out & about series.  Nice shots!    It makes me want to go out there and take a look myself.  I like the Fish for Sale on the best.  8)

I'd also like to see the rest of my own country.  I haven't seen much outside of the east coast.  

How much is the cottage going for Hagar?

That's a lovely part of the world you come from Hagar old pal. Great photos.
