You know, back in the seventies and eighties there used to be this fabulous non official naturist beach in Lincolnshire called Theddlethorpe which started at a car park down a lane called Churchill Lane. So many people would visit this beach in the summer that it was often far too crowded with cars trailing back down the lane trying to find a space to park in.
Then, during the eighties, this nutter of a woman who started walking her horses on the beach started telephoning the Police everytime she saw someone naked. This carried on for a year or so but in the end she got a caution for wasting Police time and resources.
Sadly, the beach has never returned to those fabulous glory days and is now just a shadow of what it used to be but there are still a few naturists who venture down there as it is a gorgeous, remote beach only interrupted by dog walkers and beach ramblers.
Hmm,interesting.You couldn't give a bit more info,could you?It's a bit of a drive from Essex,but it sounds worth checking out.
There are several other threads on here that describe Theddlethorpe beach, and how to access it (use the search button). Unfortunately, if you Google it, you will find many references to less-than-savory goings-on there, which I find slightly off-putting. However, I have never been there myself, so I don't know how true those reports are.
Having said that, I am hoping to visit there next weekend if the weather holds.
