Summary edit
| Description |
English: A gap in the sea wall. This once used to be an access to the beach which has since been swept away. See also > 995201.
Wooden groynes and a sea wall at the bottom of the cliff face protect this section of coastline from further erosion. 30,000 tonnes of rock, shipped by barge, will be brought in to reinforce sea defences between Horsey Ness > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/946875 and Winterton Ness Gap, replacing the damaged groynes in the area > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/946906 and to construct a 275 metre long section of rock revetment at Eccles > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/802681 and 280,000 cubic metres of sand will be dredged from the seabed 10 miles offshore between Yarmouth and Lowestoft - it has already been predicted that the close proximity of this operation to the coast will cause further problems - in order to build up the beaches at Sea Palling > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/919741 and Waxham > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/801579 - starting in October. Horsey is a National Trust Nature reserve located on the northern reach of the Norfolk Broads. Horsey is famous for its fully restored restored wind pump > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/471133 which is four stories high and open to visitors. Horsey itself is a small village with a beautiful thatched church > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/883751. Access to the beach is possible on Horsey Gap where a colony of seals can often be seen. |
