St Andrews by the Sea

Looking up North Street

The weather has been so glorious over the past few days that we decided to investigate the local area on foot. The first photo shows a view of the street we live in (North Street) if you look left when leaving the house. In the bottom left hand corner of the picture is our car (a Ford Focus).

Cathedral Ruins at end of North Street

Turning the other way, you can see the ruins of the old cathedral, which is right on the clifftop by the sea.

St Andrews Pier

St Andrews is perched up on a rocky promontory between two sandy beaches. An easy walk from the house leads down to the pier.

Sea View from Castle Ruins

 

On the other side of the promontory from the pier are the castle ruins. The views out to sea from both the castle and the pier are magnificent.
