Homeowners on eroded East Yorkshire coastline demand action | ITV News

A homeowner whose house is just metres from falling into the sea said she feels "totally abandoned" by the authorities, as councillors pledged to lobby the Government for more funding to tackle coastal erosion.

Deborah Hawksley has a holiday chalet on Green Lane, Skipsea, where residents have been told their homes are among 24 on the East Yorkshire coast that will be lost to coastal erosion within the next five years.

Ms Hawksley, whose family have owned a property on the cliff top since 1934, told ITV News "I can't begin to describe the sadness when it no longer exists".
