Hemsby: Cliff-top homes due to be demolished as collapse risk grows
By Katy Lewis, Jon Ironmonger, Martin Barber & Andrew TurnerBBC News, East
Three homes close to the Cliff Edge in Norfolk are due to be demolished as high tides cut into sandy cliffs.
A Number of residents have left their wooden properties in The Marrams in Hemsby, some of which are within 1m (3. 2ft) of The Edge and are At Risk of collapse.
Several outbuildings have already succumbed as on Friday.
It is understood the homes are to be demolished from 11:00.
A council building control surveyor is currently assessing The Weather conditions and if the properties are ready to be demolished, while All the homeowners have returned to pack up any last bits.
One of them, Mary Withey, who has lived in her house for Four Years , said she and her partner " had got what we can".
" I'm not OK with it, it's been my home, I don't want to Move . . it's very sad, " She Said .
" When I first heard [it would be demolished] I was in shock and today I've just been tearful, it's horrible. "
The only access road to properties on the Marrams has also been cordoned off and is expected to collapse. As The Sea rose on Friday, a shed and a playhouse toppled over the cliff.
Hemsby Independent Lifeboat crew rescued two chickens that were still in The Shed which they said " put a smile on everyone's face".
Daniel Hurd, coxswain, with the lifeboat crew said it had been a " long old night".
The Highways Agency got The Road blocked off on Friday Evening and BT responded to a telegraph pole that was tilting on The Edge .
" Luckily we managed to get that on to The Beach and not risk public safety by it falling on top of them, " He Said .
He added that the " wind has dropped off and The Sea is currently flat as a pancake" and that The Crew would now " see where today takes us".
" We can only wish for this weather and The Sea state over the weekend, " He Said . " If we'd had that [before] we wouldn't have had any damage. . But it's going to happen [eventually] and we just need to get something in place to try to stop it eroding away The Face of the dunes constantly.
" My concern now is that if [the erosion] gets to The Car parks, we possibly may have to shut The Doors on the Lifeboat Station And Then you won't have sea cover off Hemsby at All . . and that is serious. "
The Village , near Great Yarmouth , is home to about 3,000 people and was once home to a Pontins Holiday Camp .
This Week 's events have been the culmination of punishing weather conditions and high tides.
Fire crews knocked on doors on Friday and urged anybody still in the affected properties to leave their homes.
On Friday, Great Yarmouth Borough Council's chief executive, Sheila Oxtoby, said it was looking to bring some rock on to The Beach to protect The Road access to A Number of other properties as a " temporary solution".
It is understood 19,000 tonnes of granite are due to arrive on Wednesday.
Ms Oxtoby said: " At the same time as dealing with The Immediate issue, we're also looking at how we can use our emergency powers to provide a temporary rock berm solution to give us more time for the main scheme. "
Mr Hurd, however, said the current situation was " heart-breaking" and could have been resolved earlier.
He Said : " I just think it's absolutely ridiculous, this has been an emergency for years and it's taken this weekend for them to see it's an emergency to then get a rock berm put on The Beach . "
Borough councillor, James Bensley, said he could understand that people were frustrated But there had been " so much bureaucracy".
" It's a real minefield of making sure that what local government and The Authorities do is the correct line of procedure and I can totally understand people's frustrations, " He Said .
" We [also] have to make sure it works, we have to make sure it's cost affordable and doesn't affect further south down the coast.
" I know The Process and The Time that has been taken is exhausting and I can fully appreciate and understand that But we have to do it correctly and with the tools that we have got and through The Right channels. "
Last Year , a 1. 3km (0. 8 Mile ) rock berm at The Base of the cliff was approved in principle, But The Council funding for the £15m scheme was " challenging to obtain" with just £2. 5m available from the government.
This is not the First Time homes in Hembsy have become casualties to The Sea .
Seven bungalows along The Marrams and, in December 2013, " the worst Storm Surge in 60 years" destroyed seven homes.
