Holme Dunes on the north Norfolk coast was visited almost fortnightly from April to September thorough 2001. Upto five traps were placed over the various habitats including the salt marsh, dune slack, reed-beds and grazing marsh.

Some interesting moths were caught, mainly from the salt marsh areas, where the main trapping was concentrated. They included the RDB3 Platytes alpinella and Nb moths Rosy Wave, Sand Dart, White Colon, Shore Wainscot, Star-wort, Dotted Fan-foot, Silky Wainscot, Crescnet Striped, Lyme Grass, Coleophora deviella (new to VC28), Eulamprotes wilkella, Pediosa aridella, Schoenobius gigantella, and Homoeosoma nebulella.
