- Abstract
The article offers information on the variety and richness of habitats in Blakeney Point area in Norfolk, England, which was acquired by the National Trust as part of its National Nature Reserve. The Blakeney Point is a shingle spit that includes area of principal interest adjoining the coast line from Weybourne to Wells. A discussion on the highly complicated character of the shingle system of Blakeney Point is presented. It also features its great ecological interest of three dune systems and its vegetation that carries out the expectation on the historic sequence. Moreover, it also offers information on the principal types of habitat including the mobile shingle, stabilized shingle, narrow-mouthed salt marshes, broad-mouthed bays and mud-flats, and the shingle low.
