Looking west out to sea (which is visible on a sunny day) from Castle Craig.
These pictures are in high resolution, so clicking on the them for an enlargement should show much better detail. The new house is almost in the centre of the picture, just beyond the clump of trees in the foreground. Guy and Christobel's house is down the hill to right. The old house is on the far right on the other side of the river in front of the shelter belt.
These were taken on a very wet day after a very wet fortnight, which is why the drains on the flats have flooded. Since the property is bounded by two rivers, which join somewhere just above the centre of the picture, flooding is common. The question is not, "Will it flood this year?" but, "How many times will it flood?"
