At the back of the Chesil, and on the landward side of the east and west fleets, lie Chickerell, Fleet, and Langton Herring, which, although situated in valleys some mile or so from the coast, are typical fishing villages, the inhabitants of which depend on fishing and farming for a THE CHESIL BEACH AND PORTLAND 271 livelihood, in the same way that the natives of Portland combine seafaring with stone- quarrying. When the " huer, " who is always on the lookout, gives notice that a shoal of macke...rel are approaching the shore, the natives, leaving plough, stone-quarry, or hay-cart, hurry down to the shallow fleets, which they cross in flat- bottomed punts, and pay out the seine nets from the cumbersome boats that always lie in readiness. To watch a good haul of mackerel taken on the Chesil is a sight worth going many miles to see. Men, women, and children leave their village homes in charge of the aged " granf ers " and " granmers, " and help to sort and pack the writhing masses of fish.
