Description: | Viewpoint, W. of St. Mary's Church, Reculver. Looking E. Coastal protection. St. Mary's Church, shown in the background, was formerly a long way inland. Erosion of the soft Thanet Sand has brought the sea to the immediate vicinity of the church in recent years. By using groynes and concrete walls erosion has been arrested. The flat slabs of rock in the foreground are 'doggers' of Thanet Sand. |
