Man has to pull home back from a cliff for the second time after losing 40m of land

A man is being forced to drag his home further inland for a second time, so it avoids toppling over a cliff - having lost four metres of ground to erosion just last weekend.

Former soldier, Lance Martin, 65, first pulled his home back from the cliff edge at Hemsby, Norfolk, in 2018 after losing 40 metres of his back garden to erosion.

Now he said he'll drag it back a further 40 metres this week with a tractor, after several neighbouring homes were demolished last weekend.
