Overview
- Officials reported significant cliff loss at the northern end of Thorpeness and said the property met critical safety levels following regular monitoring.
- Preparatory work was completed last week, and the teardown is expected to take seven to ten days.
- Homeowner Jean Flick, 88, who lived there for 25 years, is staying with family after removing belongings and had previously said losing the house would break her heart.
- The project is estimated to cost about £25,000, with roughly £13,000 expected from an Environment Agency grant.
- A nearby home was removed in 2022 as the coastline retreated, and strong winds this week could slow the current demolition.
