It's nothing new! Our coastline, mostly sand and chalk, has been eroding since we parted company with the rest of Europe during the last Ice Age over 8,000 years ago. The East Coast is known for this.

the Norfolk coast is changing shape every year. I live in Martham which is 2.5 miles from the coast. Maybe it time to buy a home a bit more inland. Your home has survived this winter, but I think time is running out for your house. I've seen the damage to Happisburgh, Winterton and Hemesby, you can't hold back the power of nature.

I'm pretty sure here we are in 2023 and the sea has not risen by anywhere near that........other wise my bungalow would be under water.

In the late 1970s, these were holiday homes the water was turned off during the winter and you were not allowed to live in them. Bad idea to allow all year round occupation, no expert could ever predict the rate of erosion regarding sand heaps. They are not brick built. If I owned one of those properties behind, I would be most worried, as soon as the sand cliffs go then Hemsby will be flooded. It's impossible to hold back the tide without millions of pounds. These bungalows have been falling into the sea since around 1980 ish, my parents owned two.
