Right click image for full screen, yellow arrows to scroll, green slider to zoom
This is the view from the wooden walkway running along the back of Lister Gardens, a memorial to Dr Joseph Lister who pioneered antiseptic surgery. These gardens, together with the adjacent Langmore Gardens were completely re-made and re-planted during 2006 as part of a £20m coastal protection scheme.
The long harbour wall which can be seen at the end of the beach is the famous Cobb which was used as a film location for the film 'French Lieutenant's Woman' and also Jane Austen's 'Persuasion'
