Our First 24 Hours in Newbiggin-by-the-Sea

We arrived on Saturday afternoon and within an hour I was walking along the 1 mile promenade and then back along there shoreline of the beach. 
It is a really nice promenade and the houses are not fancy but look nice and affordable. In The Times last weekend Newbiggin-by-the-Sea was described as one of the most affordable seaside places in England, although that will push prices up.
This is a most unusual statue of a young couple looking out to sea. 
Looking across to the Maritime Centre and the Church
Just off the promenade is a lovely central area with cafe's and a Bandstand
A smaller version of the sea statue beside the promenade.
 
Sunday morning and after breakfast I am off for a walk beside the Golf Course and Caravan park
It's low tide and this fisherman is trying his luck from the rocks. No coastal erosion here.
In the distance at the furthermost end of the Golf Course is a Power Station
No beach looks it's best at low tide but when the tide is in this will be quite nice.

The path next to the Caravan Site but it petered out and I had to turn back and then go along by the Golf Course.
The Golf Clubhouse. There were loads of Golfers on the course this morning so its very popular. I am not a golfer but it looked a bit dull compared to some of the Links courses in Scotland.
