About Walton on the Naze
Walton on the Naze is a small but quite
busy and popular resort town in Essex with a population of
around 12000, on the North Sea coast, in the Tendring district.
North of Clacton and south of the busy port
of Harwich, it abuts Frinton-on-Sea to the south, and is part
of the parish of Frinton and Walton.
Walton is also home to a HM Coastguard team
and also houses Thames MRSC responsible for organising the
resources available from Walton, Clacton and Holbrook Coastguard.
The Naze itself is a peninsula to the north
of the town. It is an important site for migrating birds.
Many bird watchers visit the area at migration times.
The Hanoverian tower at the start of the
open area of the Naze was built as a sea mark, to assist ships
on this otherwise fairly featureless stretch of coast.
The Naze is eroding rapidly and threatening
the tower and the wildlife. The Naze Protection Society was
formed to campaign for erosion controls.
Due to the visible erosion of the Naze,
this has become a popular area for fieldwork research into
the effects of coastal erosion and methods used to protect
the coastline. Millions of tons of sand has been added to
the beach in an attempt to replenish it and help stop the
cliff eroding. However, the area of cliff where the Naze Tower
is situated is being greatly eroded, this means the cliff
is receding at an alarming rate and it is estimated that within
50 years the Naze Tower will have disappeared into the sea.
