Magic lantern slide circa 1900.Victorian/Edwardian.Social History.Chesil Beach , sometimes called Chesil Bank, in Dorset, southern England is one of three major shingle structures in Britain.[1] Its toponym is derived from the Old English ceosel or cisel, meaning 'gravel' or 'shingle' The beach is often identified as a tombolo, although research into the geomorphology of the area has revealed that it is in fact a barrier beach which has 'rolled' landwards, joining the mainland with the Isle of Portland, giving the appearance of a tombolo.[2] The shingle beach is 29 kilometres (18 mi) long, 200 metres (660 ft) wide and 15 metres (50 ft) high.
