Great aerial views Davy, always interesting to see the changes over time and this is a super way of showing them. If the council ever wanted to make a case for sea defences to the government they could definitely use your footage 👍
It's taken a few of these vids for me to realise that the only truly accurate way to compare like this is to go top down. So this vid is my most accurate to date and, I would say, the most shocking.😲 I hope these vids are useful in ways I hadn't considered 😅
@@timothystravels8492 Reply to final sentence: oh, they are, they are! Top down is the traditional and certainly the most direct way of capturing changes in the cliff line - after all, that is how maps do it (and have done since the nineteenth century). Timothy and KA know the drill. If you sense an 'however' coming along, here it is. Whilst cliff loss is the *result* of coastal erosion, there are also the *processes* and the *causes* thereof. The processes are what is happening at and to and in the cliff face (many TT videos do this well). The causes (beating my own drum) are what the beach is doing. Beaches at mid to low tide may look like boring expanses of sand but they can be read. Patterns of beach movement have a large part to play in influencing where cliff loss occurs. Cliff detail, including - for the obsessive - stratigraphy (all those examples of laminations, bedding, layers, bands, units in the cliff face), and beach scans, especially at less than high tide, help to bring together a full picture. Experience suggests that the value of recording a situation, whether by hand camera or by drone, may not seem of much joy at the time of capture, but later on, after careful perusal, analysis, and comparison, can prove to be extremely useful. (A picture is forever, a tide is half a day.)
@brianwilliams9920 Fab stuff Brian! I have noticed many changes to the beaches and many fishermen have commented on the shifting sands and the resulting changes to how far tides are reaching on low tides as well as high. I guess what I am capturing is just one part of the ongoing changing process which will make more sense as more is captured over time. You're knowledge is proving a vital component in the Timothy's Travels journey. 😊
Just shows you that if you live to the left of the rock groyns you lose more land quicker than the land on the right of the sea wall defences. Great sea erosion yet again Davey 👏👏👏👍
Fascinating in a somewhat disturbing way. Is there any "official" estimate of how far inland the seas would go on their own? I realize sea levels are slowly increasing, so this will be quite variable depending on the year and all. The large rocks seem to protect the cliffs even when they are not of the base of the cliff.
@@timothystravels8492 In time, it will return to the original chalk cliff line, which runs from Sewerby skirting Driffield, Beverley, Hessle, and into North Lincolnshire. It has happened before. At current erosion rates, and without intervention, this would take about 10,000 years. (Driffield a seaside town?)
What is the time scale of the Google pics and your 2024 video please ? Great video thinking of moving to withernsea better find somewhere further away from the edge 😂

i look forward to your videos Davey lovely camera work thanks
Very welcome Bob! 😊
Thank you kindly 😁
Thanks for this..wonder what it will look like in 10 yrs. by your vids....
You're very welcome 😁
It is a fascinating subject that can only get more dramatic as time goes by.
We hope to document for many years to come.
Davey
Great footage, throughly enjoyed watching.
Thank you, very much appreciated 😊
Wowzers 😮how many views in 2 days. Go Davey go. Great work my friend ❤
I know!! Surprised me too!! 😮 🥰
Thank you 😊

Yes mate, really apparent here...blew my mind how much has gone! Indod many double takes when editing 😅
Cheers buddy 👍
Music is awesome too 🤩
😁😁😁
omg not been there for many years did not know it was that bad needs to go on tv show how bad the area is great filming as always
It shocked me too...lots gone there.
Cheers buddy 😊
Great comparison as always.Wont be long before they need to extend the sea defence work further along to protect that road again
I know, it's going super fast!!
Cheers buddy 👍
We used to holiday in a chalet there. The Chalet went into the sea as we couldn't afford to shift it. Good old days🤣
😢

Well most of east yorkshire is built on the same stuff as the cliffs so imagine it would go far inland eventually? 🤔

@brianwilliams9920 Fantastic stuff!! The bigger picture is becoming clearer!
Thank you wise one. 😊

As far as I am aware, the satellite images are from 2022, not sure about the street view though.
This is the stretch I mentioned previously to you, it has disappeared at an alarming rate in the last 30 years.
You weren't wrong!! Shocking!!
The road seems so close to the edge. Hope the authorities are watching. Keep up the good work. Thanks
They think it's fine to leave it alone as it's only eroding fields until it gets to a road/house and than they worry about how to stop it.
Well, it's getting a lot closer to the road....they're going to have to kick in to action soon 🫣
the unfortunate truth is they cannot stop it , delay for a very short time perhaps or move it along the coast a bit
