Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Anti-invasion defences from WWII exposed by coastal erosion. During World War II, the beaches in the area were extensively protected by erecting a number of anti-invasion defences such as barriers of scaffolding, anti-tank cubes and a number of pillboxes. As a result of a landslide in February 2005 many of these WWII constructions, which over time had been covered by sand, were exposed and many of the anti-tank blocks in the vicinity of the beach car park toppled onto the beach. See > 581786 and 581784. Similar constructions (see bottom left corner of image), have been exposed by wind and sea water and can be found in other sections of the beach, usually at the bottom of a dune. |
