‘The Only Coastal Way is Essex’ – Tony Tuckwell
So many people said how much they enjoyed Tony’s last talk that we have invited him to return to Chelmsford with a new talk.
An account of a walk along the length of the Essex Coast including circumambulations of Canvey and Mersea Islands.
Essex has the longest coastline in England 320 miles of which can be walked.
We also look at the 18th and 19th black economy of smuggling as seen on Mersea Island and up the mysterious Thames creeks and the modern 20th and 21st century attempts to come to terms with rising sea levels and flood threats.
- Refreshments, including homemade cakes
