Description
Summary:The Hayjers Rock crowns the Wester Cove as it sits at Branch Head. The rugged shoreline bends in toward the Landwash and the Gut where the River channels into the ocean. Across the Gut, the shoreline of the Easter Cove starts on Back of the Beach and arcs out toward Red Point at its tip (not visible in the photo). The Place is built into the roll of the hills rising up from the shoreline on the west side of the River delta. Like the 1960s Branch photo, this high resolution photo allows for a 2007 virtual tour around Branch. How have the landscape and the Place changed over the decades? What has stayed the same?
