TA3910 : Stony Binks
near to Humber Pilot Station [other Features], East Riding of Yorkshire, Great Britain

Stony Binks
On a day of an exceptionally low tide, it was possible to walk onto the island known as "Stony Binks". Without consulting a maritime map, it was obvious from breaking waves that the sand bank extends a considerable distance (possibly more than 1 km) north east from the tip Spurn Point. The unevenness of the sand indicates a roughness in the water flows as the tide covers the sand.
