Brean Down 2019-04-27 First time at Brean. The effect of the previous night's height of Storm Helena were plainly visible. A short walk to the end of Brean Down - up a series of very steep steps to get on to the top of the Down. The storm hadn't completely passed - making walking to the end of the Down really quite hard work.
