Grainval-LaRochequiPleure.JPG

Just west of where the path leads onto the beach at Grainval 'la Roche qui Pleure' (the weeping rocks) can be found. They represent the outflow from intra-chalk conduits that are constant feature. The lush vegetation seems to indicate a water supply that occurs all year.
