Figure 1 – The Anglian Coast 1.1 Purpose and application This report is intended as a tool to assist coastal managers in a variety of their functions including; strategic planning, capital engineering works and maintenance programmes. In addition to this the report will be of assistance with general education and awareness raising of coastal issues. The outputs also will also aid the determination of beach health parameters within NFCDD (National Flood and Coastal Defence Database). 1.2 Background The Anglian coastline stretches from Grimsby near the mouth of the River Humber to Southend-on-Sea on the northern side of the outer Thames estuary (figure 1). With a total length of approximately 470km the coast is a diverse mixture of dune fronted flood plains, shingle barrier beaches, saltmarsh and soft cliffs. There are no significant geological ‘hard rock’ coastal areas and thus significant proportions of the coast are vulnerable to marine flooding and erosion. This is likely to be compounded by climatic change and sea level rise in the future. In order to reduce the impacts of this upon the built and natural coastal environment much investment has been made in both hard and soft engineering solutions over the last century. This has resulted in significant proportions of the coast being artificially held to prevent the loss of development and infrastructure located in vulnerable areas. The Environment Agency has undertaken regular strategic coastal monitoring of the Anglian coast since 1991. The rational behind the programme is to assist the implementation of appropriate and sustainable works on the coast whether this be works undertaken by the Agency for the purpose of flood risk management or works undertaken by various maritime district council partners for erosion reduction purposes. An additional output from the monitoring programme is the assessment of coastal dynamics to inform long term strategic plans for the coastline. The vehicle for this is the Shoreline Management Plan (SMP) process, which is currently being reviewed along the entire Anglian coast. The Anglian Coastal Monitoring programme collects a variety of data including; • Annual aerial photographs • Annual topographic beach surveys (winter and summer) at 1km intervals • Bathymetric surveys (extension of beach survey lines out to approximately 10 metre depth offshore) • Continuous wave and tide recording (nearshore and offshore) In addition to this, in-depth monitoring addresses specific sea defence scheme requirements at a variety of locations along the coast. At the time of writing, the Anglian monitoring programme has begun phase VII, which includes a suite of five offshore, and twenty nearshore continuous wave and tide recorders. Various reports based upon the data collected over the years have been produced. Until now the work undertaken has been unable to assess any significant trends in the data due to the insufficient length of time over which the data has been collected. However the Agency now possesses 15 years of beach topographic data and it is therefore possible to analyse these to determine initial indicators of longer-term trends. Data collected in the future can be readily added to this analysis to further ascertain the validity of the trends. 1.3 Beach topographic profile data The Environment Agency has collected beach topographic profile data at 1km intervals along the coast since 1991. Profiles are taken twice yearly in summer and in winter. The most recent set of available data means that there is now a continuous record of beach levels spanning fifteen years. Generally the area of interest is the average rate of beach erosion or accretion along the coast. In addition to this, gradual change to the gradient or steepness of the beach is of particular interest to coastal managers. The analysis of trends in beach morphological behaviour may have significant impacts upon coastal management decisions in the future. Artificially defended beaches that are experiencing erosion and steepening trends may prove to be difficult and expensive to maintain structures. Even with maintenance the structures may fail because of inadequate structural support or ground movements from diminishing quantities of beach material and subsequent beach platform loss. However it is not the intention of this report to ascertain such issues at a local scale. The ongoing revisions of the Shoreline Management Plans (SMP) and Coastal Strategic Studies, which are currently being compiled along the Anglian coast, are the appropriate vehicle for this assessment. The length of the Anglian coast means that there are over 400 topographic profiles that have been collected over the years. For the purposes of regional strategic coastal management, the entire UK coast has been divided up sediment cells and sub-cells (HR Wallingford, 1994 & Defra, 2006). These are individual discrete sections of the coast that are considered to be independent from each other in terms of coastal processes. The relevant sections on the coast are: - Flamborough Head to Donna Nook Sub-cell 2a+b1 Donna Nook to Gibraltar Point Sub-cell 2c Gibraltar Point to Old Hunstanton Sub-cell 2d Old Hunstanton to Kelling Sub-cell 3a Kelling to Lowestoft Ness Sub-cell 3b Lowestoft Ness to Felixstowe Sub-cell 3c Harwich to Canvey Island Sub-cell 3d These boundaries are convenient divisions for the separation and publication of the results of the trends analysis reports. 1 The first SMP review for this section of coast will encapsulate the coast from Flamborough Head to Gibraltar Point. Only that part of the coast south of the Humber is within the Anglian region. Figure 2. Conceptual diagram of a beach profile showing shoreline advance/retreat and foreshore change parameter.

  • The Rectors of Martlesham
    THE RECTORS OF MARTLESHAM By HAROLD R. LINGWOOD. The long continuity of Christian worship at Martlesham has extended from the reign of Edward the Confessor down to the present year. Of those who held the cure of souls here in Norman and early Plantagenet times nothing is known. There seems, however, to be an unbroken sequence of rectors from the early years of Edward I. None appears to have risen to eminence. It may be that the seclusion of the place attracted men ' who would ambition shun.' Once installed, they were out of the eye of authority and promotion passed them by. The longest rectorate was that of John Steffe, extending to 59 years (1639-1698)' the next being that of Ernest George Doughty, 54 years (1861-1915). Between the coming of the first George Doughty in 1698 to the resignation of his descendant, Frederic Ernest Doughty in 1944, a period of 246 years, the living was held by members of that family (George, George Clarke, Ernest George, Frederic Ernest) and their near connections (Thomas Goodwin, Thomas D'Eye Betts) for a total of 218 years. The patronage, which came to them through the marriage of George Doughty of Theberton Hall to Anne, youngest daughter of John Goodwin of Martlesham Hall, in 1758, is still in Doughty hands. The details contained in the following list have been consider- ably condensed, in order to save space. Unless otherwise stated, the dates are taken from the Institution Books at Norwich; the name of the patron, when known, follows that of the Incumbent.

  • Lost Country Houses of Suffolk
    LOST COUNTRY HOUSES OF SUFFOLK W. M. Roberts Lost Country Houses of Suffolk Figure 1. Locations of Suffolk's lost country houses INTRODUCTION The Social and Economic Background NOTHER BIG HOUSE DOOMED'- thus, in March 1957, the Suffolk Chronicle & Mercury ‘A announced the prospective demolition of one of Suffolk's large country houses, Branches Park, in the west of the county. This was not the first such report that the newspapers had carried, nor was it to be the last. From the end of the Great War through until the last quarter of the twentieth century large houses continued to be demolished, and it was not until changes in planning law and the development of new uses for large properties stemmed the flow of destruction that the considerable damage which had been done to the county's historical, architectural and artistic heritage came to an end. That damage, which occurred right across the country, was graphically portrayed in 1974 in an exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum and in the accompanying book The Destruction of the Country House.[1] The book listed some 700 houses in England which had been pulled down or destroyed by fire and contained illustrations of nearly two hundred of them. Through the exhibition and the book the extent of the catastrophe that had occurred was brought to public attention. Not all the houses were of great architectural merit nor were their contents of particular distinction. However, many of the houses were the work of great architects and were set in gardens and parks designed and improved by the best-known landscape gardeners of past centuries.

It makes free-standing statutory proposals for this part of the stretch, and seeks approval for them by the Secretary of State in their own right under section 52 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. 2.1.3 The report explains how we propose to implement the England Coast Path (“the trail”) on this part of the stretch, and details the likely consequences in terms of the wider ‘Coastal Margin’ that will be created if our proposals are approved by the Secretary of State. Our report also sets out: any proposals we think are necessary for restricting or excluding coastal access rights to address particular issues, in line with the powers in the legislation; and any proposed powers for the trail to be capable of being relocated on particular sections (“roll-back”), if this proves necessary in the future because of coastal change.

    TRINITY HOUSE PLANNING FOR CLIMATE CHANGE PROGRESS REPORT 2016 Understanding climate risk | Understanding uncertainties | Action plan review Addressing barriers and understanding interdependencies | Monitoring and evaluating | Opportunities and benefits Image: Longships Lighthouse by Tim Stevens in 2008 1.0 Background 1.1 As a major infrastructure provider, Trinity House participated in the first round of Climate Change Adaptation Reporting, producing its first ‘Climate Change Adaptation Report’ in 2011. It has now been invited by DEFRA to provide an ‘adaptation progress update’ on this report, focussing on how our understanding of climate change implications has developed and what actions have been implemented to address those risks. This document comprises Trinity House’s response to that invitation. DEFRA document ‘How to report your progress in planning for climate change’ has informed the structure of the report. 2.0 Understanding climate risk 2.1 The process of researching and putting together the Climate Change Adaptation Report was invaluable in developing Trinity House’s understanding of climate change predictions. It gave us the opportunity to examine the potential impacts of climate change on our organisation and to ensure that ‘climate change awareness’’ was an integral part of our planning and decision making process. 2.2 Because of its value to Trinity House, we have taken the opportunity presented by this adaptation progress reporting process to review our Climate Change Adaptation Report. The 2015 report is produced in the context of changing data on climate change. Since this first round report, the IPCC AR5 has superseded IPCC AR4. Whilst it would be fair to say that the overall thrust of this fifth assessment report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, shows that the effects of climate change are likely to be more extreme than previously thought, it is not considered that this new data is material to our ability to pinpoint organisational vulnerability.
