A cloudy start to our day as we cracked on with a bit of admin but as seems to be the way at the moment it got better and warmer as the day progressed.

We had planned a gentle day today which is probably just as well as it really was quite warm in the afternoon and we were thankful for the sea breeze as we walked along the top (where the pebbles are more compact) from our site at Normans Bay….

Only a mile or so to the west to the small village of Pevensey – from the start of th village the houses back onto the pebbles of the beach with many gardens extending over the beach a bit – not a bad back garden to enjoy your morning coffee in….

Extending on into Eastbourne in the distance to the west and looking back beyond Normans Bay to Hastings in the east….

A few of the beachfront properties are super new with loads of glass but most of them are almost shanty / chalet in style with many of them thankfully looking lived in.

We wandered back through the village, not the most attractive with way too many of the 50 / 60’s box style knock ’em up cheap and quick but a friendly, loved and lived in place.
