Receptor and Consequence
According to Hickey (1997), this event was associated with a storm surge along the English North Sea coastline. It was reported that water came up to Alfred-terrace at Walton, Essex, and several beach huts were damaged. A caravan at St. Osythe was also flooded (Banjo, 2018).
