This is a fantastic walk starting from Allhallows. The London Stone marks the entrance to Yantlet Creek on the Grain side. You'll enjoy stunning views across the Thames to Southend and Shoeburyness. The tranquility and abundance of wildlife along the way are truly blissful, with many land and sea birds to observe. Be cautious around cattle, especially if they have calves. Unfortunately, you can't walk all the way around the coast to Grain village due to a restricted area, which is marked on an OS map. However, you can head in the other direction and walk to Gravesend, which is at least 10 miles away. At the entrance to Yantlet Creek, you'll find large banks of shells that resemble sand, with patches of clay mud. The creek extends a good distance inland and is too wide to cross. It might be possible at low tide with boots, but avoid the mud. Historically, this creek is what made the Isle of Grain an island. As it approaches the Grain road before the Power Station, the creek narrows into a ditch. Use an OS map to navigate public footpaths. The entire area consists of farmland, a no-go zone (MoD range), and land belonging to the power station.
在一个阳光明媚的日子里,我从万圣节步行过来。潮水已经退去,可以轻松穿过 Yantlet Creek 到达海滩。目前尚不清楚这是否是私人土地,但没有任何迹象表明这一点。其他步行者正在享受天气和退潮。您可以在退潮时步行前往历史悠久的伦敦石了解更多信息。绍森德及其周边地区的景色在两个方向上都清晰可见。这是一个安静宜人的散步场所,我一定会在美好的一天回来。
