Coastlines - coastal erosion
Coastal erosion occurs when the sea wears away the land. A great deal of coastal erosion has taken place in the Holderness area on the east coast of England. Erosion is so dramatic here because the cliffs along the coast are made from boulder clay, which is soft and crumbly rock. Heavy rains and sea storms make the erosion worse.
