TF4044 : Butterwick old Roman sea bank

taken 15 years ago, near to Benington, Lincolnshire, England

Butterwick old Roman sea bank
Butterwick old Roman sea bank
This old Roman seabank runs 300 metres Parallel to the sea defences built around the end of the 1800s and 1000 metres behind the reclaimed land of the 1960`s. It can be followed in many places from Skegness to Fosdyke and beyond.
Many parts are now tree lined, and give good cover for breeding game such as pheasants, where local farms hold regular shoots during the winter months on the reclaimed land to the east.
