Swanage seaside visitor guide.

The clock tower (sans clocks) at Peveril Point, Swanage - odd it might look and so it should, local builder and stone mason Mowlem used this building (and others) to ballast his ships on their return journeys when they delivered stone to London.....

alongside the clock tower the Swanage Lifeboat house......

watched by the local gull population, cleaning nets at sea.......

the local wet fish shop in Swanage has their own boat - an ex-Fowey registered punt, the Independent.....

viewed from the end of the pier, the high speed cat Condor Express heads out of Poole on her way to the Channel Islands - maybe one day the Scillonian IV will look like this.......

a Saab Sea Wave Radar, one of these hanging off the end of the quay in Newlyn might create some interesting readings at certain times of the year......

they could have used some Cornish granite perhaps.....

the SSRC, local sea rowing club in Swanage, proudly displays the 3rd prize rosette from this year's town carnival.......

behind lays their gig, Dancing Ledge.....

along the length Swanage's wooden pier, anyone can have a small brass plaque engraved and set into the wooden walkway.......
