Sheerness Seascape, Kent

Today we decided to take a short trip out to Sheerness on the Isle of Sheppey as we have not been there for several years. The town itself sits away from the sea but after directions given by a friendly local we found the easiest way to the beach. Once you have climbed the steps on to the sea wall you are suddenly hit with an expansive view of the sea and shoreline (see my main image), and in today's case, a strong onshore breeze which played havoc with my unkempt lockdown hair! Not a great look! 
The secondary images are of a defensive sea wall which has been newly graffitied with a large letter P (not sure why) and one of the words which is part of a poem called Sheerness Seafront by the poet Ros Barber painted on steps down to the beach which refers to 3000 tons of explosives that are still buried off Sheppey's shores inside the hull of the shipwrecked SS Richard Montgomery.
