Is your research titled "Rottingdean...the tourist trap that fell into the sea?". Also, how come you are asking this on NSC the night before it is submitted when there's a quarter of your grade at stake?

I'd get over to the Geologist forums or SAGA website if I was you.

The environment agency tends to have details like that on their website.

Ring the National Trust Southern division tomorrow morning. They work in conjunction with various bodies on coastal erosion along the Seven Sisters, so may have access to data.

Seem to recall from my GCSE geography that in building the marina the longshore drift was affected thus speeding up coastal erosion eastwards.

Give them a bell tomorrow or just guesstimate the numbers.

I imagine you can find out visiting numbers of south downs way for a start.

You can with a groyne (sort of). A-level geography was a blast. I'd recommend it to anyone and everyone. Although I imagine it has changed a little bit in 15 years.

I will be marking some geography exams that are being taken tomorrow, with special reference to Rottingdean*. If I find any answers from this thread on any paper, it will be an automatic...

Field trip to Cadair Idris sorted that one for me.

There is no erosion, because of the sea wall and defences. The sea does not reach the cliffs. Periodic maintenance of the wall only.
