I think this would be fascinating and important to investigate, as would the only natural rocky bit of Essex present at Harwich (I have no personal knowledge of this small piece of rocky coastline). Serious investigation of the biodiversity associated with this area and of the new habitat created by the use of granite rocks to reinforce the seawall defence at Holland-on-Sea would be very interesting and rewarding. This is not a field in which the Club currently has much expertise though, except for seaweeds through Ian Tittley, the County Recorder for this group.
