Easter Monday close to the mouth of river Cuckmere where the river used to meander down to the sea as a series of ox bows beneath the Sevan Sisters – beautiful to see from above at sunset but this cost money to maintain and the river now partially straitened is left to silt up and quickly the ox bows are disappearing replaced by this flood plain. When i zoomed my photograph, the little black dots on the cliff are people – very close to the edge, which is eroding 30 -40 cms a year and sometimes wthout warning, tumbles into the sea.
