People living along parts of the Norfolk coast are being told to "be prepared" for flooding. 

Flood alerts have been issued for a large stretch of the Norfolk coast running from Kelling Quay to Hunstanton. 

The Environment Agency has said tides are expected to be near flood alert levels due to high spring tides and the forecast weather.
