Did someone steal the sea?

Happisburgh lighthouse stands in the middle of a field quite a way inland (~400yds)......

It was erected by Trinity House in 1791 along with another on the cliff-top, which was demolished in 1884 before the sea could do the job, coastal erosion being a very big problem along this coast).

A shot from our Norfolk holiday last September.
