几个世纪以来，英格兰东南部的沿海防御工事根据欧洲政治的起伏不断地修建和重建。这篇文章涵盖了从罗马人涌入到现在的广泛历史时期，详细描述了山体滑坡和海岸侵蚀如何影响了这段海岸线上的许多建筑。主要的易滑坡地层在这部分海岸形成了广泛的地段，具有脆弱的趋势，非常容易受到海上攻击和悬崖撤退的影响。防御工事是出于必要而在战略位置上建造的，而没有充分考虑到它们所在的土地。沿着这段海岸线不断修建防御工事，构成了无与伦比的考古记录，但它一直受到海岸侵蚀和山体滑坡的威胁。
Coastal fortifications in South East England have been continuously built and rebuilt over the centuries according to the ebb and flow of politics in Europe. This paper covers an extensive historical period from the influx of the Romans to the present day, detailing how landslides and coastal erosion have affected the numerous constructions along this stretch of coastline. Principal landslide-prone strata form extensive sections of this part of the coast with the tendency to be weak and highly susceptible to marine attack and cliff retreat. Fortifications have been built out of necessity in strategic positions without full consideration of the ground upon which they have been constructed. The continual construction of fortifications along this section of coastline constitutes an unparalleled archaeological record, but it is one that is under continuous threat from coastal erosion and landsliding.
