  1. I'm down on the shore at Birnbeck here. Looking at the erosion.

    I can imagine that one more freezing winter and this lot could be down on the ground.

    And, if you notice the street lamp up top, that's the edge of Kewstoke Toll Road[no tolls paid nowadays though].

  2. The local authorities, with the aid of business sponsors, are now starting to address the issue of dangerous railings with new fencing at Birnbeck.

  3. I don't ever lean on/use for support any of the railings at Birnbeck - this picture shows why that has been/is still a sound policy.

    The silt laden tidal waters of the Bristol Channel, combined with it's eight meter average rise & fall, is very abrasive and erodes anything man made - relentlessly.
    If a structure is not maintained it is slowly decomposed; without quarter.
