Coastal seaside view at Branscombe, Devon, England, United Kingdom. It is located within the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, overlooking Lyme Bay. The village straggles along narrow roads down steep-sided valleys, terminating at a shingle beach, Branscombe Mouth, which forms part of the East Devon and Dorset Jurassic Coast. To either side of the beach, the coast rises steeply to cliffs, which are in the ownership of the National Trust. It is a popular point for starting walks on the South West Coast Path.
