It is called 'long shore drift'. On the east coast of England the waves move obliquely to the shore and erode material in parts, carry it along the coast, and deposit such material elsewhere, such as at Spurn Head, The spit has, however, also to contend ith the power of the River Humber which may well break through at some time.

Thats the way the local sea currents flow and deposit the eroded material from Yorkshire along the bar known as 'Spurn Head'

They think it is down to global warming but the truth is our coastline has been diminishing since day one after breaking away from Europe.
There has been a TV series on this and other areas of Briton's Coastline. They may have a CD set?
