Scott House Basing View Basingstoke RG21 4JG [email protected] Tel: 01256 461161 Preface The Slapton Coastal Zone Management Study has been commissioned by the Slapton Line Partnership. The Slapton Line Partnership is made up of the following organisations: English Nature Devon County Council South Hams District Council Whitley Wildlife Conservation Trust Slapton Ley Field Centre Environment Agency Defra The Partnership has been formed to decide how best to deal with potential future erosion of Slapton Line and its effect on the road, the environment, and the community. The objective of this study is to compile a single reference document that will form the basis for all future decision-making that affects the shingle ridge. Scott Wilson has undertaken the study in collaboration with the University of Plymouth, Roger Tym and Partners and Dr Mark Lee. The University of Plymouth provided material for the chapters on coastal processes and modelling, Roger Tym and Partners focused on the socio-economic aspects of the study and Dr Mark Lee provided specialist geomorphology information. This report should be read in conjunction with Volumes 2,3 and 4. Volume 2 provides figures to accompany Volume 1. Volume 3 is the Phase 2 Report and Volume 4 the overall Executive Summary.

This report has been prepared by Scott Wilson on behalf of the Slapton Line Partnership. The terms of reference for the study were set out in detail in the brief for the study. 1.2 This report forms part of the Slapton Coastal Zone Management Main Study. Phase 2 will address refining the range of shoreline management options, and will result in selection of the final preferred shoreline management option. Aim 1.3 The aim of the Main Study is to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the issues relating to coastal processes at Slapton Sands for the purposes of determining an appropriate shoreline management response to the recent erosion and from this, to establish a robust long-term coastal zone management strategy for the area. The objective of the Study is therefore to compile a single reference document that will form the basis for all future decision making that affects the shingle ridge. Background 1.4 The A379 offers an important transport link between local communities, as well as providing a secondary emergency route into Dartmouth. The principal emergency route is via the A381 and A3122, narrow lanes offer the only other alternative, suitable for small vehicles only. 1.5 In previous years storms have caused significant damage to the shingle ridge, forcing road closure. The winter of 2000/2001 was no exception; a series of storms caused the loss of 5m of shingle beachhead over a length of 1000m. The erosion undermined a 200m section of the A379 that runs along the shingle ridge. This resulted in closure of the road. 1.6 Following the damage to the Coast Road, the worst affected section was realigned. The realignment extended over a length of about 200metres and moved the road approximately 20metres landwards. In addition some 12,000 tonnes of shingle were transported from the Strete Gate area and deposited in front of the affected area at Slapton, with shingle ‘bastions’ formed at each end of the protected length. Since 2001 there has been an accretion of shingle on the beach at the affected locations. August 2006, Scott Wilson 1- 1 Slapton Coastal Zone Management Main Study Volume 1: Phase 1 Report (I) Data Collection and Environmental Baseline 1.7 For the Phase 1 report a review was made of the data available. From the review it was decided to undertake a programme of surveys to provide base data for the Study. The surveys included: • Topographic survey of the road and beach • Hydrographic survey of the sea bed in the southern part of Start Bay and over Skerries Bank • Sidescan sonar survey of the seabed • Origin and destination traffic survey on the A379 1.8 In addition a programme of profile monitoring was started to supplement the monitoring already undertaken by the Field Studies Centre, South Hams District Council and the Environment Agency. 1.9 An environmental baseline was prepared, using a combination of previously published reports, data held by key stakeholders, and observations from filed inspections. The Baseline was addressed under the following headings: Ecology Geomorphology Archaeology and Cultural Heritage Landscape Socio-Economics Transportation Coastal Processes and Geomorphology 1.10 A detailed study was also made of the coastal processes affecting the shingle barrier. The study of coastal processes is in far greater detail than has previously been undertaken. This study included: An assessment of the wave climate, based on transformation inshore using a numerical wave model of offshore data from the Meteorological Office Analysis of water levels using data from Devonport Analysis of wind data Modelling of sediment transport along the beach and in the cross-shore direction August 2006, Scott Wilson 1- 2 Slapton Coastal Zone Management Main Study Volume 1: Phase 1 Report (I) Modelling of breach probability Assessment of historical changes in beach position and rates of erosion 1.11 The key beach processes affecting Slapton Sands are: Short-term storm impacts Medium term longshore transport gradients Long-term sea level rise causing the shingle barrier to rollback landwards 1.12 Each of these processes was studied. Short- and medium-term impacts are coastal process issues, whereas long-term changes are best considered within a geomorphological framework. 1.13 The cross-shore profile predicted by Powell’s model, at the time and location of the road collapse in January 2001, shows that the storm event was of a sufficient severity (wave height) and occurred in conjunction with a sufficiently high still water level to impact on the crest of the shingle ridge. The breach prediction model of Bradbury suggests that at the time of the road collapse in January 2001, the loss of road was due to beach cut back not due to the mechanism of over washing and roll back. The sensitivity tests showed that neither a sea level rise of 250mm, nor a reduction in barrier cross-sectional area of 30% would significantly increase the chances of this mechanism becoming dominant. 1.14 The January 2001 erosion event can clearly be categorised as cut-back of the edge of the shingle barrier as indicated on Figure 10.25 in Volume 2, and not as a breach of the barrier. 1.15 Examination of aerial photographs from 1999 shows that, compared to adjacent areas, the face of the shingle ridge was further seawards at the central car park and at the location where the road was undermined. Therefore these areas had steeper beaches and were at higher risk of greater erosion than other areas.

  • The Wartime Story: Key Points
    The Wartime Story Key points The Military Exercise on Anticipating War Slapton Beach July 1938 The link between Slapton Sands and D-Day began before the war. Whilst the government was denying that war was imminent in early 1938, a certain far-sighted Brigadier Bernard Law Montgomery (‘Monty’) was pressing for a combined forces amphibious landing exercise to be held in the summer of that year, the first of its kind since 1915. Start Bay prepares for War Beaches were covered with barbed wire to hamper invading forces and there was strategic placing of mines. Start Point lighthouse was camouflaged and over at the newly built BBC transmitter experiments were conducted to see if the transmission direction could be reversed to point out over the channel towards France. War Reaches Start Bay Enemy fighters and bombers were overflying to Plymouth and its strategic dockyards. The coastal villages were relatively unscathed, with only occasional raids hitting home. Harwoods shop in Torcross was bombed where luckily there were no casualties. Beesands was less fortunate when a bomb hit the house next to the Cricket Inn killing seven people. The Evacuation On November 4th 1943 the chairman of Devon County Council, Sir John Daw, received a call from the War Cabinet that the parishes behind Slapton beach were to be evacuated by 20th December. To be cleared was a total of 30,000 acres – parts of six parishes, 3,000 people, 180 farms comprising 750 families in all. The Americans Arrive The evacuation of the land around Slapton Sands was needed in order to conduct rehearsals on a massive scale for the long-anticipated landings into occupied Europe, D-Day.

Received 1 February 2007; Revised 23 June 2007; Accepted 16 July 2007 ABSTRACT: Previous sea-level studies suggest that southwest Britain has the fastest subsiding coastline in the United Kingdom, but tide-gauge data, GPS and gravity measurements and geophysical models show little evidence of anomalous subsidence in this region. In this paper we present 15 new sea-level index points from four coastal barrier systems in south Devon. Eight are from compaction-free basal sediments and others were corrected for autocompaction. Our data suggest that relative sea level along the south Devon coastline has risen by 21 Æ 4 m during the past 9000 years.

These are areas East that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision- Yorkshire making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services.
