A cross- current.

cross channel

The channel across the Sandness is formed by the action of the seas, with winds from north-easterly and easterly points, throwing up the sand and obstructing the ebbing current in its progress to sea... My idea of the best mode of stopping the present cross channel, is to drive a double row of sheeting piles at the distance of about 30 feet from each other .
