Corton Church 16 10 11

Today from Corton Church. From the church walk towards the sea and along a track which will take you to the cliff egde. Beware sheer drop! This gives you a good insight into coastal erosion as eventually Corton Church will dissapear beneath the waves. Wooden deflectors have been installed to reduce the power of the waves that pummel the cliffs and further south towards Corton beach much work has been done with large blocks of stone and concrete barriers. But note the sign warning of danger as you walk along the sea edge path.
keep walking to the end of the path and you reach Corton beach, noted for it's nude bathers.
Thsi is, I think, a fabulous stretch of coast with views of Gorleston to your left, The Pier Hotel and the Outer Harbour with its giant wind energy lego like parts clearly visible and  then to your right is Lowestoft with its own huge wind generator "Gulliver" which was the biggets wind turbine in UK when installed.
Sorry no pics, forgot the camera!
