Porlock Groynes

Porlock Groynes
Taken just off Porlock Marsh between Minehead and Porlock Weir in Somerset.

“A groyne is a shore protection structure built perpendicular to the shoreline of the coast, over the beach and into the shoreface to reduce longshore drift and trap sediments.”

Have a good weekend.
