The use of works of art as a source of evidence to assist the understanding of long-term coastal change has been a significant theme in recent studies carried out for The Crown Estate. Following the publication of previous reports on the coast of Hampshire & the Isle of Wight and the coast of East Anglia, this latest report draws together the historical resources by coastal region for England. The regions identified in the report broadly align with the natural coastal ‘sediment cells’ which are used for coastal risk management and planning.
As well as identifying resources within regions, the report describes how different resources may be evaluated and validated for usefulness, and shows how they may be used.
This report has been funded by The Crown Estate and contains the results of a study undertaken by Robin McInnes and Hope Stubbings.
The work described in the report would not have been possible without the large number of people and organisations who provided valuable assistance and who are acknowledged with gratitude within the report. Read More
