My great-grandfather served the Swanage Hospital as a Doctor from 1895-1925 and my grandmother returned there to live in the 1950s. So it happened that, as a boy growing up in Watford in the 1960s, I used to spend the summers exploring Swanage and taking boat trips to Old Harry Rocks. Nowadays I cycle the cliff path to Old Harry and here the chalk stacks are seen from above. Weaknesses within the chalk have led to the formation of caves that have collapsed to form isolated towering sea stacks.
