Erosion at the seaside location means buildings are at danger of falling into the crashing waves along the North Sea coast

A seaside village which used to be buzzing with families and tourists who would travel miles to pay a visit is now being described as a ghost town. Skipsea, in East Yorkshire which was once a popular destination is now filled with abandoned homes and shacks which are falling into the sea, the Mirror reports.

"It's just a shame. I don't want to move from this house. But I don’t know if I’m going to wake up with the sea in my bed." Yorkshire Live reporter Megan Banner, who visited the location this month, said: "It just lies rejected and unloved. I saw around two people during my whole visit - nothing in comparison to Filey and Bridlington just up the coast.
