Looking towards new sea defences at Fairhaven Lake. Medium-sized sand dunes and saltmarsh (right). High tides completely cover the saltmarsh, a haven for waders (redshank, little egret, curlew etc). The huge expanse of sand and mud of the Ribble Estuary stretches to where the river meets the Irish Sea.
