Description
Research project on the Gunfleet Estuary, 2015
Landing place on the Gunfleet Estuary, Great Holland, Frinton, it was accessed by a track from the Little Clacton Road.
The route of the track has been updated by the sand quarry (now the Great Holland Pits Nature Reserve). The lane stops on the edge of the area prone to flood, rather than the estuary proper, and it is presumed that there must have been some further length of track or inlet. <1>
