Dunwich

Dunwich, once a prosperous town of 4000 inhabitants, it has been ravished for hundreds of years by great storms and coastal erosion, until today most of Dunwich has been claimed by the sea. The cliffs of today were once more than a mile inland. Legend has it that at certain tides you can hear church bells ring from under the sea.
