In the past I've seen thousands of Knot & Godwit flying inland from around 'Pyewipe' and 'docks' areas on a big tide but don't know where they go....

If not to roost on the evolving low dune system just south of Cleethorpes leisure centre.
Does anyone know where else they might go to roost please?

Appreciate any thoughts. Thank you.

Nowhere, on the bigger tides they will try to roost at either Cleethorpes or Nth Cotes Pt, otherwise the birds will fly around the estuary till the tide goes out, they certainly do not roost inland, ( apart from Golden Plover and a few Ringed Plover/Dunlin ).
