Flood Defences, Bosham Harbour
Flood Defences, Bosham Harbour
An extension to the previous flood defences, and about one foot (30cm) higher than the older adjacent defence wall. Here is the junction between the old and new defences, at a point where a drainage channel flows into the harbour. Note that, formerly, a board could be dropped into place; preventing the back-flow of water during flood conditions.
