Coastal Erosion in North East Norfolk

The Norfolk coastline in East Anglia is experiencing rapid rates of coastal erosion, and this is an important case study. This site talks about the disappearing coastline, and has some excellent links, such as this one to a detailed article about erosion and the possible effects, and also to some pictures from various locations on the coast. This is the website of north norfolk which has some information and links, and here is a copy of the very long and detailed SMP report. Here is the website of Happisburgh, a village facing severe coastal erosion with very little protection in place.
