Cracks appear in a field above the cliffs at Osmington Mills in Dorset, caused by persistant rainfall. The weight of the waterlogged soil has caused the ground to slip, eventualy the cliff will collapse in a landslide. It is just part of the natural process of coastal erosion on the Jurassic Coast.
