Description

Stormy Dungeness, Wrecked boat on a shingle beach with lightning -
Dungeness, a headland on the coast of Kent, England, is largely a shingle beach. It shelters a large area of low-lying land, Romney Marsh. Dungeness spans Dungeness Nuclear Power Station, the hamlet of Dungeness, and an ecological site at the same location. It lies within the civil parish of Lydd.
Dungeness appears quite often in music videos, album covers and adverts.
The dramatic landscape of wrecked boats and old fishermans huts make it a favourite location for photographers
Dungeness is one of the largest expanses of shingle in Europe and is of international conservation importance for plant and invertebrate communities and birdlife. This is recognised and protected mostly through its conservation designations as a national nature reserve, a Special Protection Area, a Special Area of Conservation and part of the Site of Special Scientific Interest of Dungeness, Romney Marsh and Rye Bay. There is a remarkable variety of wildlife living at Dungeness, with over 600 different types of plant: a third of all those found in Britain. It is one of the best places in Britain to find insects such as moths, bees and beetles, and spiders; many of these are very rare, some found nowhere else in Britain.
