Porthgain Harbour and hamlet.

aka - the last flight of my much shortened trip before Storm Amy dug her claws in ...

Porthgain means ‘Chisel Port’ in English with the chisel representing the quarrying that once took place here.

From around 1850 slate, then brick, and then granite were shipped from the harbour. The crushed granite road stone was dispensed from the massive brick built hoppers, built at the beginning of the twentieth century, directly into small ships alongside Porthgain harbour. There was also a tramway built between the Blue Lagoon and here so that it was easier to ship out their slate.

I flew here just before Storm Amy hit, and other than a couple of cold water swimmers and a dog walker the place was deserted.

In the first image you can see the Welsh Blue Lagoon which was closed due to breading seals and their pups in the area, and also the reason I stayed out at sea for my panorama.

In the second shot, you can see the tiny hamlet of Abereiddy on the right, with the remains of the old slate workers cottages mid-picture (just in front of the standalone white building [public toilets, and very clean ones too]) and the Blue Lagoon off to the left with 'Abereiddi Tower' in the distance.

I believe it is a popular surfing and coasteering location and the white hut on the beach is for the parking attendant - so there is a cost during high season.

The Grand Pier at Weston Super Mare is a fantastic subject to film. Be warned the council do not permit drone flying but they really can't enforce it if you fly within the crown estate border. I generally go when it's quiet and avoid the busier areas.
