Engineered Dune Front at Hightown

Sand has recently been bulldozed here to form a ~ 15ft high barrier to protect the dune system behind. View is South towards the sailing club hut and the new concrete defences being constructed in front of it.
The sand was transported from Crosby - see this pic...
