More Photos Coming Soon ...

United Kingdom, the Holderness coast is the fastest eroding coastline in the world. They lose around 2 meters of land every year. A few years ago was even worse, and between March and December the coastline lost into the sea was 10.2 meters!

This used to be someone's garden.
