Sydney Bligh's film begins with views of Arundel Castle in West Sussex before moving on to Dorset’s Jurassic Coast. At Boscombe we see rough seas crash onto the beach followed by a more placid view of Poole Harbour, seen from the town's Constitution Hill. We next visit Stair Hole, near Lulworth Cove, where waves smash through arches eroded by battering seas. Finally we end in East Sussex at a very windy Beachy Head - getting a high tide view of its famous lighthouse.
