TL8804 : Oyster Pits?

3 km from Heybridge Basin, Essex, Great Britain

Oyster Pits?

I am sure these must be old oyster pits in the salt-marsh in Southey Creek. At the time this picture was taken it was more than an hour past low tide. When I passed by about an hour later the tide in the creek itself was rising fast but the pits were by then almost empty.
