Landslips at Charmouth on the Dorset coast, UK.


A landslip on the South West Coast Path at Charmouth. This section of the Jurassic Coast has always been prone to landslips due to the unstable nature of the Jurassic clays and shales, but increased heav rainfall events and rising sea levels driven by climate change are starting to lead to an increased incidence of coastal erosion.
