I've spent much of my adult life fishing this coastline. Down at Kilnsea, near the caravan park, there used to be an old WW2 military facility including coastal defence gun turrets, a large barrack type building and more. Since around 2005, almost all of it has gone to the sea. Some of the turret bases, which were circular, up to perhaps 5m in diameter and made of solid reinforced concrete, have been deposited quite a way off the coast, which is mind boggling. When it's truly low water, parts of the building are still visible a long way from the beach. Bricks, reinforced concrete blocks weighing many tonnes, it's all just shifted around by the sea like it's made of foam. As an example of how quickly it erodes. In 2006 I stood on top of one of the turret bases in its original position atop the cliff, next to what i think was the communications/staff building which was also still standing. It's difficult to tell which turret it was, but I think it's the one thats now about 10m off the shore. There is a positive to all this erosion, particularly when it comes to structures like this. The nature of reinforced concrete means it generally takes decades to break down once in the sea, if not longer. This can have the positive side effect of creative an artificial reef, and therefore habitat for marine life. I thought perhaps for you GCSE students, the WW2 military angle might give you something to research, particularly since both historic and modern photo's exist. The former installation was called the Godwin Battery, location 53.6219492612036, 0.1419368034825124. There are photos on Google Maps and a location marker. As recently as 2005, the building was mostly intact. As you'll see from modern photo's, it is now anything but. Good luck with GCSE Geography. Long ago, I got a B, so I'm sure most of you will do better. PS. The water along this section of coastline is very muddy because of something called Dogger Bank, which was a swamplike area of land that connected the now UK to mainland Europe. Lots of people lived on that land. It flooded over time resulting in many human settlements being lost to the sea. To this day, ancient remains are washed up, sometimes on beaches hundreds of miles away. Fairly recently, an amber carving of a bear was washed up on a beach in Norway. It was Mesolithic and originated from a settlement on Dogger Bank. Almost like the story of the lost city of Atlantis. Google will show you Dogger Bank maps both ancient and modern. PSA: Dogger Bank is the area called "Dogger" which you will have heard if you've ever listened to a shipping forecast on the radio.
