Regarding the mis-spelling of Easton Broad above, I wrote to the Environment Agency thus:
Sirs
I recently walked the stretch of beach from Kessingland to Southwold and whilst pausing for a break at Easton Broad, I came across this sluice, which I believe your EA have typed up incorrectly as EASTERN Broad instead of EASTON Broad, for the sake of accuracy can you please explain the discrepency?
I enclose a link to my photo of your signage
Yours sincerely
John Cooper
Four emails later I received this from the EA stating [the obvious] that it was not a deliberate mistake!
Dear Mr Cooper
