Longniddry Bents
Beach in East Lothian, Scotland
About
Longniddry Bents is a beach just north of Longniddry in East Lothian, Scotland.
The beach is almost 2 miles in length, which includes Gosford Bay to the east side, and the rockier Seton Sands to the west. Along the beach are the remains of a wall of concrete tank traps erected during World War II as protection from any attempted German invasion. Many of these are now hidden in the surrounding sea-grass and sea buckthorn bushes.
