MDG2732
Dumfries and Galloway

Description

As described. Scrub and gorse covered. Impossible to see ramparts clearly and seem eroded in all places. High potential for coastal erosion, especially when rough conditions. ShoreUPDATE 21/10/2015 The coast edge in this area is hard rocky cliffs, the hinterland is extremely densely vegetated. No visible earthworks at the coast edge. No erosion of the coast edge, remove from priorities
