Took a short walk this morning from #NashPoint to #ColHuwPoint (aka ##LlantwitMajor #Beach). It's a great section of the #WalesCoastalPath with a #Lighthouse #WW2 #PillBox(es), the famous #StDonatsCastle and, of course, some great views.

Looking up to the dome at the top of a circular, white lighthouse. A weather vane in the shape of an arrow sits atop a riveted metal dome. Below this the Light Room is glazed with diamond shaped panes. Behind the lighthouse wispy white clouds pass through a deep blue skyLooking at the Lighthouse complex at Nash point. The main lighthouse is to the right of the photo, To the left of this are a number of single storey buildings , one of which supports the large fog horn. Finally to the far left is a circular tower topped with a flat roof and a guard rail. All the buildings are painted bright white. To the far left a sheer Limestone and Mudstone cliff drops to a blue grey sea.The foreground is dense green vegetation and the sky is pale blue and cloudlessLooking West along the coastline. A blue grey sea laps at a rocky foreshore. In the foreground a sheer cliff with a large cave forms a small promontary, behind which, in the distance, the castellated wall and slipway of St Donat's castle peaks. Further along the land rises to form another steep cliffA low grey brick hexagonal building topped with a concrete roof sits above a beach of sand and rocks. There is a low square entrance to one side and a small square opening in each of the sides
