Why is the coastline at Mappleton protected but the coastline to the north and south is unprotected?

Mappleton is being protected because it has the main b1242 road passing it and this road links up to the main coastal towns such as tun stall and wither sea. Further north and south of Mappleton is not being protected because the north and south of Mappleton is surrounded by cheap farmland, and it would cost a lot to protect it.


How have they tried to protect Mappleton and how has this affected the coastline south of Mappleton?

Mappleton has been protected through the construction of a rock groyn. This structure has reduced erosion at Mappleton but has caused increased erosion south of the groyn due to interruption of sediment flow along the coast. This has resulted in the loss of beaches and increased vulnerability to erosion in areas beyond Mappleton.
