Save Prince’s Parade: Protecting our sea front and the adjacent land

This is a brief journey along the canal and the adjacent sea front between Hythe and Seabrook. It is a journey exploring the beauty, singular tranquility and appeal of this area. Seabrook signals the start of Hythe canal and heralds the long meandering line of defence, built to deter Napoleon from landing. The canal (owned by English Heritage), sea front and it's environs change constantly, opening up a world of differing aspects as you walk along and breath in and touch these very special qualities, it is a jewel of nature.
