turner clouds

If JMW Turner was never in Littlehampton, he was missing some good clouds.

Across the way from the early nineteenth-century, bow-fronted South Terrace is the wonderfully different East Beach Cafe, designed by Thomas Heatherwick (the back wall looks a little like an interesting cloud formation). It stands out on the long beach where there is little more than pebbles, water, sea kale, beach huts and sky to fill the scene which suits us fine - but it's undeniably better with refreshements. 

I don't know if Turner liked tea and cake with his clouds, but we do.
