Forest was waterlogged & flooded as sea-levels rose after last 'Ice Age'--this event was C14 dated to 6174–5961 BC at nearby Theddlethorpe.

The drowning of this forest by the rising tide was, of course, part of larger post-'Ice Age' flooding of Doggerland:https://twitter.com/caitlinrgreen/status/586600030150270976 …
Dr Caitlin Green added,

Worryingly, http://www.nature.com/nclimate/journal/v6/n4/abs/nclimate2923.html … (2016) suggests this coastline in 600–5000yrs time (via http://flood.firetree.net/ )pic.twitter.com/f9AUxLuOq0
Weren't some of those areas previously under water prior to drainage, dikes, etc. Nature reasserts herself.
Indeed, those areas will be amongst the first to be affected, though will eventually affect other areas too in medium-term
but I'm sure my hot temper is not a contributing factor although I wish I could bash some dumb heads together.
It's v worrying, especially viewed in terms of the long-term consequences...Not sure future generations will be impressed...
