As we leave Lynmouth and the Valley of the Rocks we take a stroll over Foreland Point. This view is looking west over Lynton, the larger sister village to Lynmouth which lies much below that to our right. The Valley of the Rocks is just beyond the 'v' shaped cutting (see note). The road we see here is the infamous Porlock Hill road with its very steep 1 in 4 (25%) inclines at both ends.
Enjoy full screen. Have a good day.
ps Inspired by our Ipernity friend David G Johnson, below - here is that famous hymn, Jerusalem:

This capture belies the beauty of this place. The views beyond the trees and behind this hill to the right are breath-taking but that is for another day.
‘The Valley of the Rocks, is a dry valley that runs parallel to the coast in north Devon, England, about 1 kilometre to the west of the village of Lynton. It is a popular tourist destination, noted for its herd of feral goats, and for its landscape and geology.’ Wiki.
Enjoy full screen.
Have a great day.
