Melvich Bay
Painting No. 25
Between John o’ Groats and Cape Wrath lie more than 70 miles of coastline as hard and severe as the Arctic, towards which it looks. The jagged rocks and towering cliffs of this frowning shore dom-inate the few chinks in its armour - the handful of river mouths and deep sandy coves such as Melvich Bay. There have been three major fishing tragedies within sight of its high dunes, but on 22nd August, 1918, three boats and their crews came safe ashore on Melvich’s gentle sands in a ferocious north-westerly gale which claimed seven souls. In these days of increasing selfcentred-ness, what kind of “coastline” do we present to those with shipwrecked lives?
