Observations of coastal erosion and sea on East Anglian Coast

Altered Coast is a documentation through images and words of coastal erosion on the coast of East Anglia. Locations, sediment, weather systems, communities, tides and surges as actors in a constantly changing, increasingly fragile evolution. As restless and powerful as the sea itself.

A video taken by local resident and artist Carol Cameron shows a major land slip off a cliff face at Thorpeness. The interesting thing to note is that prior to the land slip, significant scouring, due to wave action, had occurred at the base of the cliff. The subsequent fall of material from the frontage of the cliff can be seen in the video.
