The cliffs near Beachy Head

Posted on by Ian C.

We took a trip today along the coast to Birling Gap – a place where the sea is swallowing the land, and where it’s easy to admire the “white cliffs”; these cliffs are eroding fast, and buildings are vanishing as years pass – note the rubble at the base of the cliffs:

We then took a walk along the cliff top towards Beachy Head (we’d planned to walk all the way, but there were more up/down sections than anticipated); the walk gets pretty close to the edge in some spots!
