St Michaels Mount - Cornwall

St Michaels Mount

Date:   August 2015

Location: Cornwall

Demolished:  No


The location of the village dates back to the 12th century, though it was rebuilt in the 15th century. Today, the site is owned by the National Trust.

 

Visitors can reach the island either by boat or on foot, depending on the tide. During our visit, we had to take a boat due to high tide, which caused us to miss the crossing. The castle is a must-see and definitely worth visiting..

Cornwalls Pill box / view Point

Cornwall  Pillbox/View Point 

Date:  August 2015

Location: Cornwall

Demolished:  No


I don't have much information about the pillbox I discovered, as my online search didn't provide many results. 

I spotted the pillbox, or lookout point, from a distance and headed straight for it because I was eager to explore. The journey to the pillbox was interesting, although it required quite a bit of walking..

Margate Lido - Margate

Margate lido 

Date: August 2015

Location:  Margate

Demolished:  No


During our visit to Margate, I decided to explore the lido. To my surprise, we were able to enter with ease and spent several enjoyable hours there.

 I discovered that the lido was built by John Henry Iles, who also created Dreamland. Unfortunately, the pool was shut down in the 1980s and has since fallen into disrepair.
