Nimbostratus clouds over Happisburgh Lighthouse, Norwich, UK.

#Clouds #Lighthouse #Happisburgh #Norwich #Photography

A sky filled with dark nimbostratus clouds over a red-and-white-striped lighthouse. Two (keepers’) cottages stand on either side of the structure, and a cement WWII "pillbox" defence bunker is just to the left. On the horizon, two people walk through a field towards the tower. Built in 1790, the Happisburgh Lighthouse was saved as a working light by volunteers from the local community. Happisburgh, Norwich, UK. Photo by Gearóid Burke, July 2020.

Difficult decisions are going to have to made and there needs to be more of a national conversation I agree.

At the moment we’re framing it around holiday homes, caravans and in this recent case in #Happisburgh - graves of the dead:

These things are nice to preserve, but not vital. The risk will soon be to whole communities.

Time and tide wait for no man... #Happisburgh tide bell now almost completely swallowed by the beach 25/8

Top of upper bell with its rim flush with the beach and the remains of the wave-activated clapper visible above as the sand has built up since the briefly active 10' high structure was installed in mid-2023. It may soon be difficult to find if the beach continues to build up at the current rate

Time and tide bell #Happisburgh ... silenced and now half buried in the beach 29/3

Top half of the bell structure minus its clapper which was apparently vandalised shortly after its installation in 2023, rest of bell now buried in sand that has built up on the beach... perhaps not what was intended but a reflection on the relationship between land and sea nonetheless

🔥 Fossil Friday Spotlight: The Oldest Human Footprints Outside of Africa! 🦶🌍

Did you know that some of the oldest known human footprAncientHistorye Africa were found in Happisburgh, England? These footprints, dating back nearly 900,000 years, belonged to an ancient hominin species—possibly Homo antecessor! 😲

The fast-eroding cliffs at #Happisburgh, Norfolk exhibit splendid exposures of a "tripartite" (like neapolitan ice cream) Quaternary #geological succession - massive brown/grey #glacial till at the base, overlain by dark, laminated pro-glacial lake muds, then by glaciofluvial sands.
Two photos show infilled channels in the upper surface of the till, and one shows where the upper two units have been eroded back, exposing the upper surface of the half million year old Happisburgh Till Member.

After three days of summer, some sort of midpoint #SeaPalling & #Happisburgh tonight

Summer #solstice #solstice2024

A distant silohouetted Happishburgh lighthouse and church against an orange sunset sky and blue sea with a flock of little terns between

A distant Happisburgh against a golden sky with tumbling backlit waves breaking on the beach

End mark on the start of the Sea Palling artificial reefs opposite the setting summer solstice sun before it meets a low cloud bank, beach and sky lit golden, sea blue

A glimpse of a huge red sun just before sunset through the low cloud bank, golden skies above, two swimmers exiting the water and one swimming out just off the beach

#Happisburgh today

Poor #Happisburgh is under imminent threat of going over the cliff into the North Sea. 10m so far this season. I'm no longer convinced, at all, by the 'natural processes' case, and think what we witness is actually a parsimonious refusal to invest in heavy-duty rock armour, a tragic passing of the buck between agencies, and outright neglect. See what is done in the outer isles of Scotland, to understand what is now feasible, develop a can-do attitude, & put #Breedon Aggregates on the case.

New Time and Tide Bell #Happisburgh today

Large bronze bell with clapper mechanism below that rings it with wave action (once the tide is in) mounted on a heavy oak frame and sled pinned to beach with sand exposed and calm sea behind looking a bit steam-punk/retro Sci-Fi/Myst

In Happisburgh by the sea
The village is slowly crumbling
Millions of years of footprints
Are being swept away by the tides
And the homes are soon tumbling

Norfolk churches are always impressive. Happisburgh’s is visible from miles around. Gooses would love to go up the tower one day and see the view from the top #NorfolkChurches #Happisburgh

@fearnphoto I’m surprised #Happisburgh hasn’t all slipped into the sea by now - the coastal erosion round there was alarming when we lived nearby 10-odd years ago 😳
