TA4012 : Chalky Beach, Spurn Peninsula

4 km from Kilnsea, East Riding of Yorkshire, Great Britain

Chalky Beach, Spurn Peninsula

For a short (500 metres approx) the side of the peninsula facing the Humber is covered in these chalk stones. They stop quite abruptly. Given the moving nature of Spurn it would seem likely that they are water borne and one could speculate that they come from the cliffs at Flamborough.
