Did anyone know that Freshwater beach used to have a stone/concrete wall along the front between the beach and the park.

There is some discussion but it seems most of the wall would have been taken down when they put dunes back in and stormwater drainage during the later 70s/early 80s
If anyone whats to see an even earlier picture then look at this aerial view of the area as far back as 1953 there is some amazing detail.
