That is so sad to see. We spent every year in the 1960's on holiday in Hemsby when I was a child. I remember many happy hours spent playing in the dunes and the bright lights of the arcades in the village. The rest of my family are all passed now and Hemsby is fading into the past with them. Thanks very much for making this video, you've put a tear in my eye and a warm glow in my heart.
Hi there I appreciate you watching, glad you had the chance to look back on the fun days you enjoyed, hopefully they will be able to have a big clear up and get it all safe and re open it for next summer.
I did the same in the 1960’s there seems much less dunes there now, looking at Google maps
@@andypandy9931 hi yes it getting washed away by big tides , storms , heavy rain that lasts for weeks ect .
That's the problem with building on sand dunes next to north sea only one winner
Hi yes exactly I agree , it’s time for change 👍
So very sad to see.been going to Norfolk since i was 15 now 75.last went with daughter and son in law 2021 just after i lost my husband,Swimming in the sea with seals.. so very many memories .we based in many places Sea Palling,Hemsby,Scratby ...right along that coast . I remember the Market and livestock auctions at stalham,the lovely craft center at Martham and having a cuppa in a tea room in Happisburgh which sadly succumbed to the ocean along with many dwellings. The best on as a child and then with my 3 children was shrimping in the sea Grown men would shrimp for their tea and would have larger shrimping nets than us and we had to be careful of weaver fish ....Oh dich memories this video has evoked. Thank you just remembered the huge cream eclairs at the old Bevans the bakers in Hemsby ...an everyday treat while in our Hols xx
Hi there wow that sounds awesome, sounds like you enjoyed the whole of the north Norfolk coast , just as we do , love hearing stories of people that have been coming to the coast and the broads all there lives , such lovely areas to live and visit. Thank you for watching, much more going on the channel all the time 👍
We can spend billions upon billions on wars but we can’t fix this🤷♂️
Hi there very true my friend 👍
Coastal erosion has been happening for millenia, its why ancient villages in parts of Yorkshire are miles out to see.
Hi oh yes of course but some places like Walcott have millions spent on them to stop it and others are left to crumble
@@WFAEXPLOREWITHME but any defenses will just push the damage elsewhere, that beach looks really bad compared too when I owned a chalet there in the 90's. When I was there the beach had no stone's just pure sand. Not a nice beach to take the kids too shame this situation WILL affect holiday makers even bothering with Hemsby.
@stephenboyd4934 , yes the whole of north Norfolk needs doing really and many other places too
Sadly nature will do what it will do. We can temporarily move the problem on to somewhere and someone else, but in the end the sea will have its’ way.
All those memories lost, like tears in the rain 😢
Hi there yes it’s a big shame ☹️
It's what nature does!! We were joined to Calais now were not just keeps going round it,l change again,an so! Let it do it's own thing, just one them, I love nature,if it happens it happens if not it doesnt,😅😅❤
Yep at least mother nature can stop the boats....
Really appreciate all your efforts. Must be so hard for the people that’s lost their homes and those now on the edge. Good to see you back at the car. 🏴
Hi there , yes definitely hard times for the residents and local communities ect
WOW !! What an adventure !! You really go all out to get your story !! Thank you- well done !! 🙌 Very impressed at your determination 👏
Hi thanks very much , yes I do my very best to make my videos exciting to watch while enjoying the adventures myself too , lots of people seem to like me doing this sort of stuff so I will keep it up 👍
If I can get more people join on the members part I will be able to do more and go further, because at the moment I still have to work 3 other jobs to keep things moving.
Went on holiday there many years ago as a child
Yes lots of people due every year it’s a lovely place but they need to sort something out as people like to use the beaches
A heroic effort, wading through the sea-water and scrambling through acres of brambles in sodden clothes. I loved this video because Our Man took on some serious challenges to let us see beautiful, scary nature in the raw. Reminded me of being completely lost in pine woods with the light going, and stuck in mud up to the knees at the remote end of a reservoir. Most of the time we survive: but stay away from the edge!
Hi there glad your enjoying the videos , yes it can be sketchy sometimes getting the good shots and braving the elements but it’s part of what I do , I’ve been doing this all my life way before being on TH-cam and would still do it if I wasn’t on here now , but people seem to love what I do , there not a day go by when I don’t get great messages from people on her or through social media ect . Glad you got out of your situations you have experienced too , when things like that happen you really feel alive and have to use all your skills to combat the situation. Hope to see you watching and chatting on other videos 👍
To far from london to care for land that takern years to wash away torrie' and labour show dont give a poo
About 15 years ago I was thinking of moving to Norfolk and actually booked a viewing at a property in Hemsby but, having done my research and found out about the coastal erosion I decided against it. However, my researches at the time revealed that it wasn't wholly a natural erosion (though this is undoubtedly part of it) but is caused by some company or other harvesting the shale for building materials. I see it ISN'T being reported as this today and we can probably guess why. However, people in Hemsby who are suffering from this erosion should perhaps be questioning the local authority as to who they were allowing to harvest this shale at that time thereby removing the coast's natural defences against erosion.
Hi there a move to Norfolk is definitely recommended, you don’t have to be right on the edge , we moved here ourselves only a few years back now and it’s the best thing we ever done . We interesting what your saying and definitely worth looking in to and doing more research on .
Holidayed there when i was young, my memory being nothing there apart from chalets we stayed in on the front ? Drove in there in the eighties and it was all built up and busy ! Turned round and never been back.
Hi , ah fair enough well them homes and chalets from back then are all gone now and more keep going as the sea works its way in .
Remember that road in the 70s when I used to cycle from Winterton to Scratby,
Hi there , yes the road was there a good few years , shame it had to go like that .
Good watch, so sad to see the state of the beach.
Thanks very much , yes I agree I thought it would be cleared up to be honest
Ohhh dear , what a mess , my heart really goes out to the people that have & will lose their homes , & like you said , i don't know how they're going to get their vans & cars out ,😢 thanks for taking us along for the ride , & getting wet too , & i hope the council clear all that metal on the beach , is'nt that where the seals go ? , if so , it could be a real danger for them .
Hi there yes it a huge mess at the moment and very dangerous, I think it will only get worse with the next set of big tides or storms. But it definitely need clearing up , yes the seal do normally hang around this area and I will be a knightmare for them . Let hope they clear it all soon before big dangerous pointed bit of metal get buried everywhere making the beach in the future very dangerous.ill do an update on this if they do anything in the future.
@@WFAEXPLOREWITHME how do you think they'll get those cars & van off of there , it looked like that van was used as a business , so they'll be losing alot of money .
I WENT TO HEMSBY TWICE WITH MY EX-HUSBAND IN THE CARAVAN PARK 12 OCTOBER '91 AND THE FOLLOWING SUMMER RENTED CHALETS AND WENT TO THE VILLAGE SHOPS AND INDOOR MARKETS, WHILE MY SISTER MORE THAN SISTER-IN-LAW PLAYED THE COIN MACHINES. I DIDN'T THINK WE CAUGHT ANY SHOW'S OR ANYTHING AT NIGHT, AS SPENDING OUR DAY'S SHOPPING IN THE VILLAGE AND GOING AROUND WITH LINDA WATCHING HER WIN ON THE COIN MACHINES. I CAN'T REMEMBER THE HOLIDAY CAMP LIKE BUTLIN'S , BUT CAN'T REMEMBER AFTER ALL THESE YEAR'S. I'M QUITE SAD TO HEAR AND SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING AT HEMSBY. OUR NORFOLK VILLAGE'S ARE BEING NEGLECTED AND THE WEALTHY RIFFRAFF HAVEN'T DONE MUCH TO HELP. I WAS BORN A ROYAL PRINCESS AND JEWISH QUEEN AT WEST RUNTON IN LONGACRE MATERNITY HOME IN 1963 THAT HAS BEEN KNOCKED DOWN FOR HOUSING. I'VE GOT A PHOTO OF IT , AS IT WAS 20 YEAR'S GIVE OR TAKE 10 YEARS. I LOVE NORFOLK AND WAS HAPPY WHEN PRINCE EDWARD, EARL OF WESSEX RECOGNISED MY SISTER REBECCA AND I AS COUSIN'S ON MY PATERNAL SIDE. I BELIEVE AND LOVE THE PEOPLE OF NORFOLK. IT IS A PLACE WHERE I'M HAPPY TO HAVE BEEN BORN WITH SIX OTHERS ON THE DAY PRESIDENT KENNEDY SIGNED THE RATIFIED TREATY TO PROHIBIT NUCLEAR WEAPONS TEST OR OTHER EXPLOSIONS IN THE SEA, AIR OR OUTER SPACE. I WAS BORN AT 0315 HOUR'S , BUT YOU HAVE MINUS I THINK FOUR HOUR'S FROM NORFOLK UK TO WASHINGTON D.C. USA. ANYWAY, IT'S GREAT TO BE LIVING IN ONE OF THE TWO CITY'S IN MY MIND IN NORFOLK UNLESS FAKENHAM IS CLASSED AS A CITY. I'M IN NORWICH AND I PREFER IT TO ANY AMERICAN CITY. IRONICALLY, DESPITE BEING A VICTIM OF ANTISEMITISM, MANY PEOPLE DON'T REALISE HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR MY PEOPLE, NORWICH WOULDN'T BE THE CITY IT IS TODAY.
Me and my husband walked along that road back in June, its heartbreaking to see how much its changed in less than 6 months 💔
Hi there , yes it’s falling down at a very fast pace, it’s a real shame, I’ve just put out a update video for this
My Nan and Grandad retired to Hemsby in the early 80s. So many fabulous memories of holidays there. My partner and I have stayed in Yarmouth and love Beach Road. It’s so sad to see Hemsby like this now. It’s almost as if it’s been neglected. Here’s hoping something will be done to help save it.😩❤🙏
Hi there , yeah it is a big shame , especially when work is happening on other beach’s around the coast as week speak .
Ahh! The sea in all its terrifying beauty! And Mother Nature taking back her power! And the earth. 🙏
Hi there , yes the see is a very powerful place when backed by storms and high winds ect .
Can’t believe he didn’t check the tides before he left!!
Tides don’t bother me I go when I go and deal with what’s there 😁👍
Great job 👏 keep going mate 👍👍
Thanks Andy , ill do my best to, 10k subs coming next year 👍👍👍
We used to go to Mundsley for many years, in the 1960s, they had excellent sea defences and I suppose they are still there. When we were going there was still part of the Beach closed off with the sign saying No entry, land mines!!!There was an Army Bomb Disposal Unit, across the road from the Beach. They were all ready to be disbanded until they spoke to one of the local people. They told him how many mines they had removed, and were horrified when he said Oh no, I was in the party laying those mines, we laid many more than that!! So it was back to the drawing board!!!Always listen to the locals!! Take care!
Hi there , great area and awesome stories, you cannot beat a good old story from round here 👍
Thanks for the video!
Hi no problem, I appreciate you watching, there’s a follow up video to it on the channel to 👍
@@WFAEXPLOREWITHME I'll check it out and get your Abo!
Went every year ,had some good holidays at hemsby ,got a clock which I won of the bingo
Hi yes a lot of people seem to have visited here each year for a holiday or a day out while on vacation in the area , it’s such a shame the Norfolk coast has to go through this and not much is done to stop it .
The road on the beach so close the Hemsby is mind blowing. I walked along it in 2021 right up to the next village (is it Scratby?). Lance Martin's black chalet was on the other side of the road with a lot of other properties and that side of the road has completely gone!
Hi there , yes most of the main road has gone now and more has gone over the last few week , I’ll be doing an update down there soon .
just found your channel so i gave it a watch ,must say you gave me the tummy trembles when you were near the edge ,i found it so sad especially the cars and caravan that was stranded,hope they find a way to recover them ,must be devastating for the property owners to see their homes go into the sea ,anyway thumbs up and subscribed ,please take care when wandering and see you soon .
Hi welcome to the channel, yes it a big shame that these properties get washed away or be demolished. Hopefully one day they will sort out the defences.
Great video thanks mate 👍
Hi there thank you very much , I enjoyed showing things around north Norfolk, the broads the beach , news on what’s happening ect , as the channel grows and I get more member supporters I will be able to go further afield 👍, glad your enjoying the content.
Great video, very enjoyable. I used to go to the Pontins Hemsby each year for the Elvis week. It`s so sad for the residents living there. I guess the banking reduces almost weekly.
Hi there thanks very much, elvis week cool 😎, I have a update coming soon , house being removed and more 👍
So sad to see the continuous coastal erosion around our coast lines.
Hi there , yes I agree but the trouble is it’s seems to be speeding up pace fast .
For future reference follow the footprints another 20 yards up the beach where you will find a clear path and steps leading up to the road at the top. Lol unless you enjoy fighting your way through brambles 😅
Hi it wouldn’t be the same if it was a easy set of step , it made the day very interesting doing a cliff climb then the crazy bramble walk , but thank you for the information 👍
@@WFAEXPLOREWITHME Ha it made my day too watching you and realising how near you were to the path. Lol but you do you, it's all NFN x
@SuperLizz99 😁, I honestly didn’t notice there was a path ect further down, I’ve never walked that far down before, I used to go along the old road ect . If on the beach always stay nearby to the entrance.
well done, you overcame all the obstacle and got back home; coastal homes will never defeat the power of the seas
Hi there , just recently been again and it’s changed a lot again, video coming Sunday 👍
@@WFAEXPLOREWITHME i wish you much safety in your adventures, and much success on you tube with more viewers. God bls
Waterside cheeers ❤😊
Hi no problem, I like to make videos the best I can for people to enjoy 👍
Great video, bit scary watching you walking in the sea, It looked so deep. As for the overhanging pieces of road, that was scary also, one lesson learned for many of us, do not walk on the very edge of cliffs that has a road or not 😮
Hi yes I do take calculated risk , but you do have to be careful as the sea. Has deep holes , cliffs can slide ect , but that’s why people watch me 👍
At 4min 14sec a view of prime building land
It was a nice coast. It is a death trap.
Hi it could still be made great again if the right things were done
Absolutely amazing at the beginning. Faced with a flood someone checks the depth before slowly safely driving through.
Anyone who watches TH-cam knows the proper way is to drive at full speed ,flood your motor and hydrolock the engine.😂
Hi there many people do in the flood situations out in the countryside , thanks for watching 👍
Jaw dropping
Hi there , yes I agree , I’ve done a follow up video to this too .
Sorry to see Hemsby in this state, I remember many happy holidays there as a child, a relative had a bungalow there. Very sad to see the erosion.
Hi yes it’s not good along the north Norfolk coast , I have a follow up video coming soon where more slides have happened and 5 houses have been removed.
@@WFAEXPLOREWITHME that’s good. We used to stay in long beach but it can’t be viewed on Google maps probably because it’s a private road. There seems to be much less dunes between it and the sea than 55 years ago.
wow i lived 252 The marrems sad to sea its been taken by the sea
Hi there , Oh wow that must of been fun times , yes very sad to see the places taken away .
At 42:00 you see large blocks that were optimistically constructed to stop the erosion. Hardening the shoreline INCREASES erosion due to "reflection" of waves.
This video got recommended to me so it's the first time I'd watched your videos. You put alot of effort into that video and it's appreciated. It's very sad to see what's happening to some coastal areas - It's like an anolgy of what's happened to our country - it's sliding into the abyss.
Hi there and welcome to the channel, I do a lot of these kind of videos and much more , It takes a lot of effort to make these , do the edits , takes time off work ect , but I enjoy showing people what’s going on . I agree with you lots of things should be done differently in our country but it will probably never happen in are life times . I’ve got another video out tonight 👍
I not surprised the road has collapsed if it’s built on sand !
That’s the trouble in the area it’s soft sand
Building anything on sand dunes upsets the natural defence against erosion.
Brave man Karl
Hi how you doing, you have to be brave to do this kind of stuff, keep you on your toes that’s for sure 😁, lots of other crazy videos been going up lately too 👍
😮😮😮😮🎉
I like Norfolk, we looked at a few places there. Tell truth in the end it was all too flat for me. I prefer the rolling hills of Cornwall, and much safer!
Hi there , ah fair enough, I love it here with all the lovely beaches and the huge Norfolk and Suffolk broads to play with 👍
I've given you a thumbs up & subscribe but honestly, don't take risks. Be careful. That eroded beach with debris looks dangerous.
Hi there welcome to the channel, I have to take some risks doing my channel that how I get the content other don’t dare get 👍
Very sad for people losing their homes. It is a reminder that the planet is changing all the time and that we can learn from King Canute (Cnut is I believe the more used spelling now) no man can control the elements. It was also interesting to see those concrete blocks when you went down to the beach. The older square blocks look like dragons teeth from the second world war that have been re-used to make a breakwater. There was also I think a spigot mortar mounting. A sad but interesting video.
Hi yes I agree very sad but has to be shown, I’ve made a follow up video coming soon
My wife and I went to Hemsby back in July and there were several torrential rainfalls while we were there. They have put a lot more concrete and iron blocks at the Gap now, and the beach is visibly narrower. Thanks for showing us just how bad it's going to get!
Well they’ve sorted it out in Portsmouth and Rhyl..
Hi , let’s hope somthing is sorted out soon 👍
@@WFAEXPLOREWITHME there is no hope..
@griswald7156 , they had 2.5 million saved into read to go towards it , but going to need a lot more .
To think I was walking on this beach 5 days before Xmas! .. so sad to see...😢
Hi yes it’s all happening very quickly because of the amount of storms we’re getting
Why does all the money go to london while places like this crumble away
Hi I agree lots of money goes to the wrong places
People build on rivers,bays,ocean cliffs, I'm sorry the families have lost everything. But they are responsible for the choices made to live by water. I have on good account that water goes where it damn pleases
What happend to the road and houses? is this a resent event?..sorry i have not seen your videos before.So sad so sad .
About 30 years ago my onkel had a smal cabbin close to the sea today all is gone and the sea is where the cabbin use to be....it is terribukle to think about how powerful the sea are and rivers etc..we have alot of snow it snows al the time and a few days ago we had 26 minus and it pending up and down-..Sorry for bad speling i am from sweden
Hi there the sea washed away at the cliff during several storm and the whole road came down the cliff on to the beach . The sea is a very powerful force , especially along north Norfolk.
This is what gets me. Councils quick to take down house as they don’t want it on the beach. Will the council clean up metal and concrete from the old road? Nope. It’s council inaction. Didn’t save the road, now cars can’t get out, ecological damage if they go in the sea & they can’t get diggers to the next load of house about to go in.
Hi there , exactly 👍
That whole sand cliffed coast is buggered. Erosion has been going on since the last IceAge. Broadlands will return to Roman times with islands, swamps and inlets. You will be able to navigate your sea going "Billy Boy" to Norwich from what is left of Lesser Yarmouth. Good bye to the kiosks and arcades of Hemsby, and good riddance!
Regardless of your opinion on Climate Change, or Global Warming, or whatever you call it next, there is one fact that is certain.
The Ocean is rising about 1/5" per year, or 1" every 5 years. The rate of increase is accelerationg. For every 1" of ocean rise, lateral erosion can be up to 200' depending on the slope of the land and its composition.
Hardening the shoreline with walls and such is a real mistake. It causes "reflection" of waves which carries sand out to sea, thereby increasing erosion.
I betcha any old timer would tell you that the beach used to be huge back in their childhood.
And for those of you lamenting the past, and hating on the increase in tourists, traffic, or whatever, think about this . . .
Everybody complains about growth. But you never see a protester at a Maternity Ward.
Thats exactly the problem in pockets down the east coast.Sand.You cant defend or build on sand soils.Common sense.
Hi there , Yep spot on ,footings need put in deep in the ground first then build up I think ?
Sea defence planning is futile, all that is going to disappear into the sea until bedrock is exposed.
Hi it’s been done up and down the coast and is working very well 👍
I can't help wondering when these houses were built, & how close to the eroding edge they were at the time.
It is common knowledge that much of the east coast is reclaimed low lying marshland, & that it is sandy ~ so why on earth [pun not intended] would houses be permitted to be built without proper sea defences having first been constructed? It's just as irresponsible as building on the flood plains inland...
When these houses were built you could not even see the sea from them , they were way back on the big cliff dunes .
Hardening the shoreline with "sea defences" is never a good plan. It increases erosion due to "reflection" of the waves which then carry material back to the ocean.
Get a tide app
Hi there I have one 👍
@@WFAEXPLOREWITHME They are great ! i use for all my beach trips and catching the extra lows and highs and the storm surges . Ty for reply .
Eventually, all ocean front property owners will lose their homes. The trick is to sell before it becomes an issue. You don't want to be the last sucker left holding the bag, so to speak.
Why did you not just use a drone ? Mad putting yourself in so much danger. Drones are cheaper than gore-tex suits.
Hi , trouble is anyone can put a drone up , getting up close and personal is much better 👍
That hasnt changed for over 20 years the lack of support from Government. Its dreadful and their excuse is always that its a waste of money because the sea will reclaim the land eventually and it will be wasted money. What gets me there is no help for the people who are losing everything. I knew it was bad at Happisburgh but I thought that Hemsby was in a better situation. So sad to see.
Hi there yes not a good situation for anyone along the coast
WOW... thats pretty horrendous... where exactly is that, as i live in Scotland... is it Southampton ..ish way?
Hi there , no it’s north Norfolk, near Yarmouth that area
I’ve just put out the follow up video to this one too 👍
Look at a map.
ha ha ha…no shit… never thought of that sheerlock...@@johnwright7895
That's what happens when you live in Hemsby
