Description

In the early years of the twentieth century commercial dredging removed a shingle beach from the tiny fishing village of Hallsands in South Devon. Soon high tides and storms washed everything away and all that is left now are the ruins of this maritime community. Dr Sam Willis meets maritime archaeologist Grant Bettinson from CITiZAN to find out more. The interview was filmed so do check out our YouTube Channel as the ruins are shown as never before with dramatic new drone footage. Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
