The Naze Tower as you approach from the south. The cafe and car park are notes in this archive shot .. it can be repeated in future times!
|
From the remnants of the concrete track, towards the last A-frame breakwater. The first erosion bay has seen much slippage over the past year, if not much retreat along the cliffs. |
The approach to the natural section of the Naze; showing the old concrete track as it enters the danger zone. The brick information structure looks likely to go sometime before summer 2002! |

The caravan used by the 'Save the Naze' Society and manned over the weekends of the summer season. Leaflets and published materials of the group were available, as well as a good chat on the Naze!

The northern end of the Naze peninsula has been seeded with sand dredged from Harwich harbour. This nourishment fronts a lagoon and sea wall, seen in the centre photo, but is now being rapidly depleted. |
Grasses have been eroded from the new deposits, leaving a fine matt of root fibres to blow in the wind.
|
At one stage the waves had cut a sharp half-metre cliff into the deposit, but now the whole beach has been sharply reduced, as can be seen here, facing south. |

The eroding sands of the north Naze, with the coastline of Suffolk, and the cranes of Felixstowe, breaking a low horizon.
