Sea wall above Throston Scar
Throston occupies the narrowest part of Hartlepool Headland and its northern shore is sufficiently sheltered to have accumulated a sandy beach - at least in early winter before the majority of North Sea storms arrive. The £9.6 million sea defence project which ran from 2015 to 2018, has, however, renewed the coping on the sea wall in work which was designed with a lifespan of roughly 100 years, though whether this allows for the rise in sea level caused by climate change is not made clear.

End of Marine Drive, Hartlepool
Looking north to the end of this road which leads along the front of Hartlepool Headland. The stone pillar at the top of the banks marks the site of Spion Kop cemetery, presumably dating it to the time of the Boer War, as this is the name of a battle in that conflict.
