Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Easington Cliffs, Easington, East Riding of Yorkshire, England.
The Holderness Coast between Spurn and Bridlington has long been notorious for the rate of erosion. The soft boulder clay cliffs are undermined by wave action and collapse; the debris is then washed away forming a new cliff which is itself undermined and the cycle repeats. This fence, sticking out into thin air, looks bizarre, but erosion has claimed much bigger prizes including roads and houses and - historically - whole villages.
