The walks worth the drive, the history that explains why a place looks the way it does, and the practical detail that's useful once you're standing there needing it. Slow to write. Worth the read.

Two beaches on opposite sides of the same headland, a harbour town between them, and a coast path that turns wild within a mile of the galleries.
The third largest natural harbour in the world, a castle built to fire across the water at the same ship as its twin, and a headland with an Iron Age fort, two shipwrecks and a WWII gun emplacement nobody signposts.
West Bay, Studland, Chesil and Kimmeridge: what to expect and when dogs are welcome.
Golden Cap, the Purbeck ridge and Kimmeridge: the walks worth making the trip for.
