Norfolk Sea Defences?

Question

I need a case study for geography on hard engineering within the UK in terms of sea defences. I heard Norfolk is a good example, as sea walls and groynes have been constructed. Does anyone know any more information about it such as construction dates, how successfull it' s been and any effects on other areas?

Cheers.

happisburgh is a big problem here in norfolk, it has sea defences, but they are wearing away... http://www.happisburgh.org.uk/

theres even a charity, where you donate money so big rocks can be bought to protect the cliffs! http://www.buyarockforhappisburgh.com/do...
