Newbiggin-by-the-Sea

Whilst visiting my friend in Blyth, we spent an afternoon at nearby Newbiggin-by-the-Sea.  The beach at Newbiggin, which had suffered decades of erosion, underwent a massive redevelopment in 2007. That year, more than 500,000 tonnes of sand were brought up the coast from Skegness and a new breakwater built.  The breakwater includes a sculpture, by artist Sean Henry, called  Couple.  A small version of the two figures (the 'Land Couple') can be seen on the promenade.
