Fascinating fact

Pharology (named after Pharos, the famed lighthouse of Alexandria) is the study of lighthouses and signal lights. Those who study lighthouses are known as Pharologists

An eroding coastline

Did you know that the fragile chalk cliffs of Beachy Head are eroding at an average rate of 60 centimetres per year!

Can you help me?

I am currently writing another book about Belle Tout and I am looking for people to help with information, pictures, photographs, postcards, anecdotes and stories about anything to do with Belle Tout.

I will cover any and all costs and ensure that you have a credit in what will be a unique publication that will be a part of Belle Tout's future history.
