Day 162/19. The Worm's Head

A very windy (but no rain) walk today to the Worm's Head. We did not venture out to the head itself as the tide was in. The picture shows the path to the causeway, only exposed for a few hours each day.
As you can see, when the tide is in, there is quite a sea over the causeway.
Historically named 'Wurm' meaning 'dragon' by Viking invaders, the promontory, Worm's Head, is shaped like a giant sea-serpent and marks the most westerly tip of Gower. The island is joined to the mainland by a rocky causeway and features an large flat-topped 'Inner Head', towards a natural rock bridge called 'Devil's Bridge', a 'Low Neck' leading further out to the 'Outer Head'. The headland is one mile long and the highest point is approximately 150 feet.
