Coastal Erosion in Norfolk
Erosion north and east of Norwich, in communities boarding the North Sea is problematic. Today as a class we traveled to the communities of Happisburg and Sea Palling and learned about erosion and the problems associated with it. Happisburg, a community just north of Sea Palling, has been trying to build barriers through a seawall. By doing this they are directly effecting the erosion at Sea Palling, just south. Sea Palling has tried to mitigate the effects by creating off shore breakwaters. After the educational experience at each location we had some time to check out the beach and explore.
