Seaton Sluice Magnets

The Carboniferous sea stack in Collywell Bay, Seaton Sluice, Northumberland is known locally as Charlie's Garden from the time when it was much bigger and the top was alive with vegetation. This image was taken on a cold, wet and stormy November morning as the rough seas were splashing around the stack giving a good example of why it is constantly eroding. There is also a cormorant on the top of the stack drying its wings after a morning's fishing.
