You're standing at Durdle Door, a natural limestone arch on the Jurassic Coast in the south of England. Take a good look at that hole in the rock. The sea has carved it out over countless years. The land here is privately owned by the Weld family, who own the Lulworth Estate, but it's open to everyone.
