  I think Im right unless it's Winspit further west, but at the first cove on left hand side of caves there are impressive sailing ships on walls just inside the entrance. Am guessing they would have been carved in by the quarrymen back int he day. Also at dancing ledge there is passage through a cave on the right hand side as yo face the sea. this emerges onto another ledge where there is a cave with another carving of sailing ships, but also some writing signed T E Lawrence. Its very weathered but there all the same. No idea if it is genuine. When younger I used to camp out in the shallower cave and listen to french radio whilst falling asleep. It's a beautifully evocative area that I like to return to from time to time - while I still can ! Those slopes are definitely getting longer and steeper..

  Thank you. I have been regularly running since I was a young lad & indeed was quite a serious 400m athlete (!). Years of "pounding" on the knees has taken a toll I fear. I am not in any pain at all .... just general stiffness in my legs due to age! I am thrilled that I can still take part in 10K races with Fiver (my younger dog) despite being 62 years old & weighing well over 15 stone! I dislocated my hip playing Rugby about 30 years ago & I remember the Doctor telling me at the time that, at some stage in the future, I would probably be reminded of it! Thanks for the concern & indeed thanks for watching.

  Late 40's memory.....in my youth driving to the sea at Kimmeridge we used the road in front of Creech Grange that led up the hill to the summit and that wonderful view of the far away sea. Sometimes our old Citroen wouldn't be able to get up the hill and we had to back all the way down and go round through Corfe. WONDERFUL Walk - many thanks for reviving the memories.

  I can’t help but reflect that if someone wanted to erect a structure such as the Grange Arch today the local council would probably refuse planning permission. But if it’s old then quick slap a listing on it and have it looked after by the NT.

  It really is some of the best lowland walking country that Britain has to offer around Corfe Dave, I love it. The walks are so varied and the views are fantastic wherever you go.

  Always drive over this airfield on the way home whenever possible. Carted on the perimeter in the fifties and was driven by my father along the main runway from 0 to80 mph doing his Mosquito take off drill. He was an instructor and recce pilot in ww2. It is sad that recent history has gone so quickly from the Forest. Bless all the men and women who served.

  We lived in Bracklesham in the 90s and these places were our haunts, lovely boat ride in itchinor....i also had a whippet the same colour and she lived for 17 years but like a few of my rescues had cancer...she had a long pedigree which i still have but the reason we had her when i was 13years old was that she lived near a farm and she would run out, round up her friends and take them across the farmers field. He said if she did it again he would shoot her, so we gave her a home..

  I was interested in your observations regarding finding so many buttercups. I live in eastern Scotland and have just returned from a wee break to North Yorkshire, where I was delighted to see far more wildflowers of various species growing abundantly even at the roadsides. Perhaps it’s a sign of fewer and less obnoxious chemicals being used: who knows.

  Loved this, thankyou both! More like a walk up the river than a walk in the countryside. That must be a mighty wet path in the winter. In other news, we've so enjoyed the snippets from the pen of Sir Frederick Treves, I went on a search and found a copy. Glorious munch through history. Especially our home town of Poole. The current incumbents of the council chambers need to have a read and educate themselves! The inhabitants of Poole were always a force to be reckoned with apparently. I wonder what the ancestors would have thought about being coralled into the "one", now known as BCP. 😂

Strange that the old track was so wet, after this warm spell. I daresay Logan appreciated it though.
