Coastal Protection and Flood Defence - Flood defence schemes since 1961

Description

 
Coastal erosion and flooding pose a threat to people and their property at the coast. For generations, society has built defences to prevent erosion and protect land from flooding. Examples of these include groynes, sea walls and embankments (termed hard engineering).
