You were fortunate to have such a dreich day. The weather has really made this image and, as others have said, with the b+w treatment it has a timeless feel to it. Good also to see the village with the tide out. Gritty realism.

Fantastic view of this village, and a terrific POV.The B&W gives it a timeless feel. It could have been taking a century ago. VV

Such a charming town! Great POV ~ definitely worth trudging uphill!

The lack of colour really sets this apart from anything else I've seen. It could almost have been hand drawn with pencil. Excellent.

Was worth the trek...great shot!!

Looks as though it hasn't changed in centuries - great in B&W.

Great comp, it would be a stunning place for a clear sunrise.

Its a cracking composition, I bet it looks spectacular with the sunrise hitting it.

It's a very photogenic place, all you need is the weather.

Lots of fine detail in this grand perspective over this old village.
