NR12 0PW — North Norfolk

Shoreline Management Plan area: Kelling Hard to Lowestoft · Defence: Revetment - Impermeable

What is planned for this frontage

Managed realignment for this frontage, in both the medium and long term.

Across both epochs the intention is to let the shoreline move to a new position and manage it there, rather than hold the existing line. A Shoreline Management Plan is a non-statutory plan: it sets out intent, it does not commit funding, and it is reviewed periodically. The policy applies to a policy unit — a stretch of coast — not to an individual property.

Policy unit 6.12 · nearest mapped frontage 0.06 km from this postcode of the Kelling Hard to Lowestoft Shoreline Management Plan · Defence recorded here: Revetment - Impermeable. The two epochs are the ones the Environment Agency pairs with its 2055 and 2105 recession projections. Policy describes the whole policy unit, so it is the frontage that is being managed, not this address.

Projected coastline recession (Environment Agency)

By 2055, if defences are not maintained72 m
By 2105, if defences are not maintained144 m
By 2105, worst-case climate, no defences158 m
By 2055, with planned management delivered72 m
By 2105, with planned management delivered144 m

Flood: Flood Zone 3 — high probability (source: river and sea)

Likelihood of actual flooding (Environment Agency NaFRA2 — the same assessment as gov.uk's "check long term flood risk"):

Rivers & sea (with defences): Very LowSurface water: Very Low

Flood zones are the planning designation (rivers & sea only, defences ignored); the likelihood bands include defences and add surface-water flooding. Coastal frontages can sit in Zone 3 yet show low residual likelihood behind maintained defences — the erosion projections above show how long those defences matter.

Sea level: rising 2.69 mm/yr at Lowestoft, UK (42 km away, NOAA long-term trend).

Projections describe the mapped frontage, not a single property boundary; distances are cumulative metres of recession under Environment Agency NCERM (2024) scenarios.
