11-30 hrs: Friday's expedition - not the most beautiful beach but it is interesting - a wave cut platform over London Clay; cliffs of London clay undercut by encroaching sea; some dramatic landslips; sea defenses to the north; Red Crag beds at the top of the cliff - out of reach; plant fossils on the beach; lots of interesting pebbles.
The beach extends along to the Deben, where there is more gravel (and sea kale growing at the top of the beach). A tiring walk as it is on stones most of the way and no nice tea room to go to afterwards -but fun.
