Lynton from Porlock Hill

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:

I'm not joining the choir Herb............you wouldn't enjoy my singing voice, but I'm happy to join in the praise for this beautiful vista. I love the expanse of green in the foreground especially.

Nicely composed and taken........and thanks for the labelling as well.

This green defies my knowledge of the English Language.
I can not do it justice.
