Fragile Edge | Kilnsea & Easington Beach

It’s been a long time since I’ve been to Easington beach. I think I was probably 8 or 9 years old last time. lt has changed in that time. The beach as grown considerably wider. Much of East Yorkshire’s coastline is made of soft clay. The cliffs were never going to be able to withstand the constant battering from the North Sea. Over the years, they have worn away, gradually depositing the wartime defences that used to protect the coast, on the beach.
