Looking back (3)

 

The Orient Beach was named after the ship The SV Orient, wrecked on the beach in July 1907.

Fierce storms, wrecked two ships in almost the same place. The village was shocked, but bystanders later happily descended onto the wreck site to gather as much as they could in the way of timber and interesting debris.
