Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Sand le Mere, Southeast of Tunstall, East Riding of Yorkshire, England.
On the parish boundary between Roos and Rimswell. Sand le Mere was originally the name of a nearby village which was lost to the North Sea by 1086. To celebrate the Millennium, the people of Tunstall erected a monument showing that their village was the most northerly point where the Greenwich Meridian remained on land (evidence suggests the monument was placed somewhere near the meridian rather than actually on it). It didn't last long: in January 2003 the cliff collapsed and the monument fell into the North Sea. Even prior to 2003 little if any land in grid square TA3231 remained above the high water mark.
