David asked why, in my poem "The Lonely Grave", the northern coast is 'rusty'.

I hope this photo answers his question - with a bit of poetic license, of course!

Does it actually have iron ore in its composition Stephen, or just some other form of coloured sand mineral?

Thanks, Stephen. We have sandstone cliffs down our way which are a rusty red colour.

Cheers
David

Thanks, David. No idea, Shelley. Sorry.
