Pentewan Harbour & village 8.2
Summary management approach
With consideration of local objectives for flood risk management and regeneration, investigate realignment options that would allow transition of the beach to a more sustainable position that could be maintained to at least the lifetime of the SMP. A scheme is currently under development to manage flood risk to the village from wave run at the northen end of the beach. This comprises a set-back reinforced beach bund, which will provide a 1 in 40 year standard of protection. The scheme is due to be built in 2024.
Generic approach assigned to this unit
Management approaches depend on funding and relevant approvals and permissions. Adaptation to coastal change may be needed. If defences are present, some risk from flooding, erosion or ground instability may remain.
Time periods (short (0 to 20 years), medium (20 to 50 years) and long (50 to 100)) are approximate and do not signify precise dates of management transitions.
0 to 20 years (2005 to 2025)
MR4Managed realignmentNatural features
Where the intention is to maintain the flood or erosion risk management performance of a natural feature such as dune system, spit, or shingle barrier. This does not always mean fixing its position. The approach might involve active management of the feature or its surroundings to increase its width, length, height, or resilience. It does not involve building structures on or behind the natural feature.
20 to 50 years (2025 to 2055)
