THE BRIEF
The coastline is a virtual line that is in constant fluctuation, this is a result of rising water levels, an increase in stormy weather and several other factors. All these factors will in-turn affect our living standards both nationally and globally.
In the 2013 - 2014 winters we saw an increased rate of erosion across the country. 5 - 15years worth of erosion happened in merely one year. By 2050 and through coastal erosion it is predicted that hindered of miles worth of coastal front will be lost, it is not only land that will be lost but over 15 million people across the UK will be affected by this change. This is where Fluctuating Archipelago comes in, during our study we aim to select and understand the coastal conditions, by implement-ing a multi-scalar approach we need to decide,develop and design ourselves through such conditions.
Understating the Concern

AN INTRODUCTION
“It is predicted with increasing confidence that climate change will lead to continued sea-level rise and increased Storminess which in turn accelerates the scale and pace of coastal
change.”
Phil DykeNational Trust
Coastal Squeeze is when coastal habitats that are trapped between a fixed landward boundary, such as a sea wall and rising sea levels.
At Formby the beach is eroding back, the sand dunes are pushing back and eventually they will hit the hard-scaping of formby harming the infrastructure in place. This would require re-scaping of land use around the entire site over a prolonged period of time .
We propose to redesign and “squeeze” Formby into a new position over the next 100 years . Thus prolonging but also preserving the infrastructure and migrating the habitats inland.

AN OVERVIEW ON FORMBY
Formby is a coastal town of 7 sq miles (17 km²) it has a population of approximately 25,000. As part of the Sefton coast it is bound on the west by the sea.
The area is a conserved by the National Trust, and designated a site of Specific Scientific Interest. Formby is an area protected by extensive sand-hills, covered in creeping willows and marram grass.
The land is strictly preserved, and only a few foot paths across the forbidden ground are open to the public. The sand-hills afford shelter from the sea winds to the three villages of Formby, Formby-by-the-Sea, and Fresh-field, which form one town.
Situated on flat, sandy land, surrounded by fields intersected by ditches, where rye, wheat, potatoes and asparagus grow. Fishing for shrimps and raking the sands for cockles provide employment to some of the locals.
The greater area is a popular tourist destina-tion during the summer months. Day trippers are attracted to its beaches, sand dunes and wildlife,

COASTAL CHANGE OVER THE YEARS
The coast is changing: always has and always will.This includes not only the physical change in the coast
A series of satellite views illustrate the changes over the past half century that have occurred on the formby site.

COASTAL CHANGES PAST AND FUTURE
Tides play an important morphophonemic role by shifting the operational zone of waves up and down the beach pro-file, determining the position and change of the dunes.
The rise and fall of the tides causes temporal changes in the cross-shore transport direction at any location on the intertidal profile, this be-comes more pronounced as tidal range increases.

COASTAL ACTIVITY ACROSS THE SITE
The town is built upon the west of a large flat area of land called the West Lancashire Coastal Plain.
The town is 0.5 metres below sea level at its lowest point. Formby’s highest point is within the ever changing sand dunes.
The River Alt runs into the Irish Sea just south of Formby at High-town.

CURRENT SITE USE
Formby is affluent with high owner occupation. Strong economic ties are retained with Liverpool.
It is well connected with a train route as well as the Formby bypass A565.
The greater area is a popular tourist destination during the summer months, with day trippers at-tracted to its beaches, sand dunes and wildlife.

TOURIST INTERACTION IN FORMBYAcross the map illustrates how the tourists interact with the town of formby and where the tourist hotspots are and which areas are more heavily used.
There are two main spots along the Formby Coast which are particularly popular with the public. These are Lifeboat road which is closely located to the beach, and Victoria Road which is linked to the red squirrel woods.

TOURIST STATISTICS
Formby is popular with day trippers from Liverpool and other industrial towns in Merseyside and West Lancashire.
From a phone call held with Phil Moody (Head Rang-er at Formby) we found out that the site receives 350,000 visitors in the summer months, easily 3,000 on a single Sunday visit.

UNDERSTANDING GEOMORPHOLOGY
Sand Dunes are formed under different coastal pretences. The section highlighted in blue illustrates the nature of the sand dunes that have been formed at formby point.
These are migrating dunes, Migrating dunes natural-ly shift inward on land due to the surface being continually blown away by strong oncoming winds.

ENGINEERING TECHNIQUES Physical management of the coast attempts to control natural processes such as erosion and long-shore drift.
HARD ENGINEERING tend to be expensive, short-term options. They may also have a high impact on the landscape or environment and be unsustainable.
SOFT ENGINEERING are less expensive. They are usually more long-term and sustainable, with less impact on the environment.

ADVANTAGES
- Absorb the energy of waves. - Allows the build up of a beach.
DISADVANTAGES
- Expensive to obtain the boulders. - Expensive to transport the boulders.
ADVANTAGES
- Prevents the movement of beach material along the coast by long-shore drift as it traps sediment within the plant. - Slows down the transfer rate inland.
DISADVANTAGES
- Not a massive contribution to long-shore drift.
ADVANTAGES
- Allows the build up of a beach. - Beaches are a natural defence against erosion and an attraction for tourists.
DISADVANTAGES
- Can be seen as unattractive. - Costly to build and maintain.

ADVANTAGES
- The roots hold the soil together,preventing the soil from eroding. - The trees act as wind breakers. Thus reducing the effect of wind on long-shore drift. - Trees reduce the speed of flowing water there by reducing the erosion.
ADVANTAGES
- Halt the erosion due to roads being built on-top of it.
DISADVANTAGES
- Not aesthetically pleasing on coastline. - Environmental implications. - Maintenance.
ADVANTAGES
- Protects the base of cliffs, land and buildings against erosion. - Can prevent coastal flooding.
DISADVANTAGES
- Expensive to build. - Curved sea walls reflect the energy of the waves back to the sea. Cause more damage long term.

MAIN SITE LOCATION
The main focal of our project will lay near the frontal coast, where the sand dunes lay and there is a tobacco waste dumping ground.
Farming this part of our site will act as the catalyst to our design enabling us to design further infrastructure and develop the site in phases over time.
![Page 65: Formby Draft](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042906/579077371a28ab6874bcb37d/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)

PHASE 1 - FARMING
USE EXISTING FARMLAND, AND PLANT AND SELL CROPS TO FUND SITE EXPANSION.
PHASE 2 - SKY WALKS
CONSTANTLY MIGRATING SKY WALKS, ELEVATED TO PROTECT DUNES YET ALLOW TOURIST ACCESS.
PHASE 3 - TOURIST FACILITY
INTRODUCE ACTIVITY/EDUCATION CENTRES,LEISURE CAFE. GENERATE REVENUE.
PHASE 4 - ACCOMMODATION
INTEGRATE SIMPLE TREE HOUSE HOTELS. ENCOURAGE LONGER VISITS TO GENERATE MORE REVENUE

Coastal squeeze is the term used to describe what happens to coastal habitats that are trapped between a fixed landward boundary, such as a sea wall and rising sea levels and/or increased storminess. The habitat is effectively ‘squeezed’ between the two forces and diminishes in quantity and or quality.
- Model at formby point, focused on tobacco lands. - Current dune toe position- Sedimentl drift direction shown.
- Formby town and pine-woods migrate further inland. - New OSB’s engineered using farmland profits.- New OSB’s buy more time for Hospital.
- Farming if protected. Large revenues Generated. - Pine Woods migrate inland. - Natural reduction in OSB due to sediment drift.
- If left to erode naturally. - Dune toe position would migrate towards rail. - Would only take 150 years.
- Coastline forms a sharp point, requires taming. - Farming expands, Pine-woods envelop Formby. - Hospital is relocated.

Breakwaters are structures constructed on coasts as part of coastal defence or to protect an anchorage from the effects of both weather and longshore drift.
we aim to use this technique to manipulate the erosion rate in certain parts of the coast. This will buy time and allow for a calculated “coastal squeeze” to take place.
- Engineering OSB to protect tobacco lands.- Farming can take place on Tobacco site. - OSB delays erosion rate.
- Sediment drift from coastline onto OSB’s. - Peak of coastline begins to diminish. - Land structure: Beach>Farm>Wood>Town is restored.
- OSB’s expand through collection of longshore drift. - Formby migrated to beyond the rail route. - Further expansion of farming, increase revenue.
- Sediment drift from OSB. - Coastal squeeze begins.- Formby infrastructure to migrate inland.
- Farming is reduced. - OSB’s left to erode naturally by sediment drift. - Coastline is back to its original form.

The tobacco site is high in nitrogen content, this is currently covered in nettles as they thrive in such circumstances.
If left untreated then as the coastline continues to erode eventually the tobacco waste will be washed out into the sea where the nitrogen will leak causing an Algal bloom. This is extremely harmful the current ecology within the sea.

TOBACCO WASTE RE-USEAlfalfa is planted, as it absorbs the nitrogen out of the site and thrives in sandy soils. It has deep roots which will help reduce the erosion rate of the coastline and can later be sold on as animal feed.
Formby was once famous for its farming of asparagus, this is an industry which can be revived as the fields do continue to exist.

DEVELOPING WALKWAYS
In order to protect and limit the contact upon the sand dunes we propose to place elevated walkways through out the site.
These walkways will maintain the tourist interaction with the site and enhance site seeing potential while limiting human impact on erosion.

MODULAR WALKWAY
Modular walkways will be placed through out the entire site. The design of the walkway is built in such a way that it can be assembled, de-assembled and reassem-bled continually through the site. So their locations are ever changing as the coastline is ever changing.

SITE
The current use of the car park is to be terminated due to the fastly eroding nature of the site.
To make use of the now vacant site I propose to develop numerous structures for varying uses that will retreat back inland with the eroding landscape. Thus designing for a flexible, long-term sustainable and profitable enterprise.

INITIAL IDEAS - CAFE
Developed from the idea of a section cut through the FormbyDunes. The form allows the dune sediment to migrate and surround the Cafe overtime, revealing different parts of the structure as it does so.
As the dune slides over the building, it will force the structure to retreat back with the eroding sand dune. The architecture is constantly evolving as the dunes are pushed back.

Undulating walkway plays on the typography of existing dunes, allowing for a playful exploration of the site.
Summer months this activity zone would be used by family and young group visitors. Winter months it is hired out by corporations for team building events.
A small (16m²) and basic unit that houses a seating, sleep-ing, viewing deck and WC. Built from deforested pine-wood.
A bigger (32m²) unit that hous-es a seating, sleeping, viewing deck and WC. Fits a family of 4 . Built from deforested pine-wood.
A luxurious multi-story ele-vated structure, that would be long lasting. Views out to the beach and would be the only structure to remain long af-ter the site has flooded. This would be made possible using dolphin engineering technology.
A cluster of units that share amenities and open up onto each-other, all built from pine-wood. Outdoor seating and socialising spaces .

DEVELOPING THE CONCEPT
CONCERN ONE. Elevated structures, while providing great treetop views do not respond enough to typog-raphy of the site and the dunes.
SOLUTION. Scatter the units across the site, allow-ing ground level cabins hidden amongst the dunes and elevated tree houses. A diversity in choice.
CONCERN TWO. Generating enough revenue to fund and build the entire site in one go would be costly.
SOLUTION. Phase the building of the site, deforest part of the woodlands,and build the single units, when enough revenue is generated from tourists, the money made will fund the next phase of building. Continually grow the site over time.
