This is the moment a home in Hemsby is torn down by an excavator amid severe coastal erosion damage in the area.

A yellow excavator digger can be seen in the video tearing pieces from the roof of the house on Thursday, March 16 after the coastal village has been battered by high spring tides and strong winds for the past three weeks.

Several homes have been demolished in the village so far, while one resident in the Marrams has moved his property away from the edge of an eroding cliff.

On Monday, Great Yarmouth Borough Council announced plans to transport rocks from Hopton to Hemsby to help protect the southern end of the crumbling coastline ahead of high tides during the spring equinox later this month.

The charity group Save Hemsby Coastline along with Hemsby Independent Lifeboat have tonight organised an emergency meeting to discuss the village's next steps and plans to lobby the government for more much-needed support.

Great Yarmouth Borough Council also continues to support residents.
