Maryport pier has a collection of paving slabs which, if read together, make up a wonderful poem. I couldn’t photograph every slab, because some were too weathered or moss-covered, and the light was poor.
Here are some of the words, along with a couple of nearby memorial wreaths.
I love the sound of grubby seagulls and blue sheep – it’s a shame you couldn’t get the rest of the poem, it would be interesting to read it all.

Yes. At the time I thought it was a bit silly to take photos of ALL the paving stones. Now I wish I had. I think it was a poem constructed from different people’s memories.
