The wider pano has sand dunes behind the wind turbines - I have slid a Clydesdale down those dunes :lol:

On the beach - apologies for quality - not my photo as I am sitting on the right hand horse!


Sounds like Haverigg beach, maybe towards Silecroft?  Loads of dunes along there.  There was an item in the National Geographic in the 1960's about lightning and they featured a sand dune at Haverrig which had been struck by lightning and showed photographs of the glass 'tube' formed by the intense heat of the strike,  I  seem to remember it was about 30 feet long(deep into the sand) which had been excavated.

I think I can just about make out the Isle of Man, ultra faintly in the mist.
