Coastal home damaged after severe weather
A home on the Fife coast is under threat after a sea wall supporting the property suffered considerable damage due to recent severe weather. Chapel Green House, located in Elie and Earlsferry, has experienced large waves battering the brick wall beneath it since late last year, resulting in collapsed masonry visible on the beach. The coastal erosion has raised concerns about the structural integrity of the property and the safety of the surrounding area.
