Hemsby coastal erosion victims – where are they now?

Margaret Parish, 73, had owned her property on a section of Hemsby seafront, known as The Marrams, since 2004.

She had bought the small chalet for £30,000 and originally used it as a holiday home – travelling up at weekends from near Hastings, East Sussex, where she worked as a property manager.

“The sea at that time was about 100 metres (328ft) away and there was a big dune in front of me, protecting me from the sea,” she said.

“In fact, when I first bought the property you could only see the sea through dips in the dune.”

In 2014, Ms Parish moved into her Hemsby home full-time.

“I was pretty sure the property would be there my whole lifetime,” she added.
