I remember getting the Scarbados train out to Hawsker as a kid and it went up to West Cliff then over the viaduct.

    Hartlepool Headland and the Durham Coast...,,🍺

    Was over the headland a couple of weeks ago with the dog. Low tide and not a lot of sand until we got past the Heugh Battery going towards Steetly pier. The paddling pool is cleaned out in the summer and filled regularly. Lovely walk along the promenade.
