On a recent visit to Escuminac Point it was obvious what an effect the recent post-tropical storm Fiona had on the Northumberland coast and elsewhere. The erosion of the peat banks on the north portion of the point is dramatic. What must be ancient tree stumps and branches visible from where they were once buried deeply in the slowly growing peat bog.
