I find it amazing that they haven't actually cleared all the pipes away up there.

They may have to look at putting in some retaining walls to slow the erosion down little.

Waaaay too late for that there now. When they built the old camp there, there was never any consideration of the geology of the cliffs. It's extremely sandy soil, which s why it's just fallen away, and it is battered by strong wind and tide. We live 20 miles south of there, and our beach has changed shape several times over the last three years.

In 1986 a concrete barrier was put in to protect the houses which my cousin lives in . IN 1968 Groynes were put in to slow down the erosion .The lord of the manor for some unknown reason refused to have the wall put across his land and has lost a lot of land

These are the stone barriers they thought might help to stop the erosion
