Tom Fort’s maritime journey takes in Eastbourne, evoking memories of bladderwrack and prawn hunting. Read by Jonathan Coy.

Wandering the 'shabby end' of the Royal Parade in Eastbourne, which houses the fishing fleet, the author is reminded of his own fishing exploits. This involved prawn-hunting.

Tom Fort's maritime journey takes us from the White Cliffs to Lands' End. About 675 miles in all.
