And this one is right beside the window overlooking the Durham Heritage Coast!
A scenic spot on the south side of Seaham at Noses Point in NE England overlooking the coastal magnesian limestone landscape that was acquired some years back by the National Trust as part of Project Neptune.
The Heritage Coast runs all the way down to Hartlepool Headland and it you enjoy fresh air and stretching your legs, the clifftop paths provide ample opportunities, not to mention great views to the distant North York Moors.

Seaham Lighthouse on the Durham Coast in NE England.
More often photographed during stormy weather, its diminutive size emphasising the height of waves that smash against the pier wall.
It dates from 1905 and is often attributed to engineer Henry Hay Wake, the gentleman behind the design of Roker Pier and Lighthouse, a few mileS up the coast at the mouth of the River Wear in Sunderland.
However, I have read that Wake was probably responsible for the design of the pier, but that Chance Brothers Company of Birmingham, who had a track record of building numerous similar structures, are thought to have been behind the construction of the lighthouse.
I came across a rather wacky story that in 1933, the company was reported to be involved in an attempt to contact "any intelligent life" on the planet Mars, using adapted lighthouse optics from a mountaintop, the Jungfrau, in Switzerland!

It's the anniversary today of the infamous 1981 Penlee Lifeboat Disaster on 19 December 1981, when all the crew of the Penlee lifeboat 'Solomon Browne', based near Newlyn in Cornwall, were tragically lost attempting to rescue the crew and passengers of the stricken coaster 'Union Star'.
Just a couple of miles down the road from where I live is the coastal town of Seaham in Co Durham and to this day, despite the passage of time, I've never forgotten the night the town made the headlines for another lifeboat disaster somewhat closer to home.
The Seaham Lifeboat Disaster occurred on 17 November 1962, when the local RNLI lifeboat 'George Elmy' capsized near the harbour walls pictured here, killing five volunteer crew members and four fishermen, including a nine-year-old boy, after rescuing them from another fishing boat, 'Economy', under atrocious stormy conditions.

Seaham Harbour's 'Tommy' by local sculptor Ray Lonsdale, sits overlooking the North Sea on the Durham coastline of North East England.

The view looking north on the Durham Heritage Coast at Seaham in North East England. The poet Lord Byron visited here in 1815 when he married Anne Isabella Milbanke at nearby Seaham Hall. Lord Byron and Ann had a child who they named Augusta. She would later become Augusta Ada King, Countess of Lovelace, acknowledged as a brilliant mathematician and writer. She is chiefly known as an early pioneer of computing, working on Charles Babbage's proposed mechanical general-purpose computer, the 'Analytical Engine'.

Ray Lonsdale's 'The Coxwain', a sculpture at Seaham Harbour, Co Durham. It commemorates the courage and dedication of past and present members of the town's lifeboat station, in particular, those who lost their lives aboard the 'George Elmy' lifeboat in 1962. The Seaham Lifeboat Disaster, as it is referred to, is an event I clearly remember from my youth.

Sea-glass collector's paradise!
The Durham coast at Seaham in North East England is regarded by many as one of the best places to head to if you're looking to collect sea-glass. Many do it just for fun, for some it's a hobby, turning the glass pebbles into pieces of art or jewelry and there are some for who it is almost a business.
