Great videos and insight into the changing landscape around there , i dont suppose you have any aerial views of Model farm in Out Newton as my sister now lives there , thanks in advance

Great video as usual of sea erosion and nice to see another part of the east coast that it’s effecting. Keep up the great work 👏👏👏👍

Top-notch session. Much to digest (ongoing, actually). Oh, and the sound track is appropriate. I find the careful close-ups of deposits - course sand, gravel, fine layers, clays, peat - particularly useful. So too the platform ridges and cliff cavities [3:16+, esp. 3:46], and cliff failure. Wonderful stuff. Reference material, this. Wartime defences: CA34, blocked-up beach searchlight emplacement [10:44, 19:30]. CA 55, 'Earwig Villa' eared pillbox, entrances blocked up not so long ago (presumably Health and Safety), once at the cliff top having slid down [12:16, 19:12, 20:12]. Chris Kolonko is your guy for that one. BA10, WWI square pillbox in enclosure [25:22, 25:51]. CA, by the way, is the abbreviation for Carnaby in RCZAS notation, and BA for Barmston. The string of concrete blocks, mostly eroded ATTs or anti-tank traps, [esp. 13:09, esp. 16:13], mark the position of the cliff in the early 1940s. A configuration of different sized pieces [24:39, 25:55, 26:19] originally protected Auburn Beck close to the mouth. Cross-beach blocks [15:43, 20:58] were to thwart potential enemy advance along the beach and make for better targeting. A short section of dunes, immediately south of Bridlington, is the only part of the coast where erosion hardly ever happens [16:52]. I have (unavoidably, I hasten to add!) seen nudists at Fraisthorpe, always male. A note on those deposits mentioned in paragraph 2. About 16,000 years ago, the ice sheet that had not long previously covered East Yorkshire as far as the chalk cliff (Sewerby-Driffield-Cottingham-Hessle) was on the retreat. It was still massive, out at the east where today is sea. Water from melt, and from the Humber, was contained by a high wall of ice and had nowhere to go. Hence Lake Humber, which for a time extended so as to cover the area which includes what we know as Fraisthorpe. Its level was higher than the present land is. Water fed in from around, producing a delta at Barmston, and the various fresh-water deposits captured so adroitly by Timothy.

nice one guys thank you for your great videos and service

Was a Nudist beach

Just think of all the money wasted housing Illegals that would have been better spent protecting our coast from erosion. Norfolk has the same problem.

Well that is certainly a scene of devastation, it won’t be long before the wind farm has to be moved back a bit. I have to ask … what on Earth was going on with that poor lobster , it looks shop bought with its pincers taped up, but what is it doing on the fallen pillbox 😳🦞. Thank you for sharing Davey and keeping us updated on the progression of the effects of erosion in that area 😊👍

Don’t forget churches .

Never seen that car park so empty

Is that an old ROC post behind the pillbox ?

NOT ALLOWED Davy. Keep your clothes on mate. 🤣

Please subscribe to the channel for regular updated videos...we're out and about as much as time will allow. ❤

Curious to know how far away from the edge when constructed and in what year.any ideas?

What a mess why don’t it get cleaned up

That is great that you have been able to film this little piece of history and share it us before it was claimed by the sea. I looked at Google maps and it is shown on there with grass all around it.

Just spent the first two minutes trying wipe a speck of muck off the screen before I realised it was the shadow of the drone.

Your time and effort is (once more) much appreciated. This pillbox was designated HM10 - see East Yorkshire coastal pillboxes (references follow the RCZAS scheme). It was placed over a ditch supported by a concrete raft. Railings on the roof were removed about 1961. Behind its erstwhile site, still extant, is HM11, an ROC post. Further north [timestamp 3:26] are the remnants of HM5, a rare markers' shelter, and beyond, pillbox HM3, recently on the beach after some time perched at an angle at the mouth of The Runnell. Another pillbox, HM21, is assumed to be located within that thicket by the side of the road [6:28, TA 37190 23990], though the growth is always too dense for confirmation. If so, it may be in pristine condition. RIP (rest in pieces) HM10. Fond memories. As regards erosion, the section of coast south of Hollym to Easington is currently in a 'catch up' (or equilibrium) phase. Just look at the denuded state of the beach. An incident of cliff loss opposite Holmpton village, captured between monitoring profiles using the cliff line comparison method for August 2023 and May 2024, was 13.47 metres.

Just like our country and British way of life eroded away every year

It's been a weird winter. I never heard of this pillbox or of sycamore gap and now I'm grieving two losses to the northern England landscape

Great footage. Have you checked out the observation tower lying on the beach south of Cowden? Its associated with the old weapons range. If you go, make sure you don't step in the dead sperm whale (which was there in spring 2023).

30 years ago I went to play golf at Flamborough Golf Club, I was told to watch out for the bunker in front of the 17th green. Expecting to find an expanse of sand, I was surprise to find an actual WW2 concrete bunker between me and the green. Not Sure if it's still there, not been for many years.

Perhaps homes for immigrants should be built close to the sea here?

Bit of history gone .

That end was heart stopping. Definitely makes care refresh worthwhile for when things go bad fast. I wonder if it was shaking so much the ground sensors couldn't work. It seemed to lose all sense of height and orientation. Nice save though! I had a similar experience where I was fighting wind over the south coast and managed to get it over land..just!

Thère doesn't seem to be any steel reenforcement bars in the wreckage, does there ? Maybe the ones that go over in one piece do have them. Thanks a lot. Colin ( Wakefield )

What’s the structure to the rear, looks a bit like the entrance to a ROC bunkr

For the money wasted on a couple of thousand scrounging illegals they could have done a couple miles of huge rocks to help slow the erosion by the waves …

Respect to the servicemen who occupied the pillbox

There are a couple of pillboxes just outside the Lever Brothers factory area in New Ferry/ Birkenhead, i used to see them every day on my journey to High School from Whitby, Ellesmere Port where we lived in the 60's and 70's.

Gerry bunkers are much sturdier.

Good video and music.

tides caused by the earth breathing

So sad to see this, Rest in Pieces my sweet treasure, gone but not forgotten.

Do you sell cds of your music? I so enjoy it

Looks like most of the washout is coming from the surface rather than the sea they need to put lots of drainage in them fields going down to sea level or there will be no farm left before long.

Do you have a cd of the music i love it

Would you mind telling me which drone you use?

The beach was lovely at Aldborough. Thank you for showing this 🩷

I wonder how far inland it was when it was first installed?

It looks real nice when the sea is blue and the high tide is not touching the mud.

Hiya great footage especially the drone, could I ask which drone you use?

When I did RC model aircraft years ago first thing I was taught was don’t fly down wind always fly into the wind as it will help you get back if something goes wrong or happens. With a plane you can glide back if your engine fails. Same with a drone wind will take you along using hardly any battery. Always have a backup plan. Drones are great fun

thats crazy but sea levels are rising so its going to happen more and more

I can't see any evidence of rebar in the debris, so I'm assuming that this structure was built without it, which would be unusual for the time. I've see similar structures fall into the sea before and if they are reinforced they tend to stay as a complete structures. Sad.

If that's 12m of erosion in less than a year......how long has that turbine farm in the distance got?!
