Poets Walk, Clevedon, Somerset

One of my favourite places in Somerset. In the foreground of this photograph (taken 1935) you can see the pathway called 'Poets Walk', so-called because a number of illustrious 19th century literary figures (including Thackeray) used to come here for solitude and contemplation while walking this path alongside the Bristol Channel. The scene has barely changed since this photograph was taken - Clevedon Pier in the distance has been restored and is still a working pier.
