Natural Susceptibility to Coastal Erosion Areas likely to be susceptible to coastal erosion based on natural features including the height and geology of the land (relative to sea level), distance to the sea and wave action. This map does not take account of existing flood or coastal erosion protection structures and does not indicate areas that will erode or the timescales over which coastal eros
