'Stay Away From Cliff Edges', Says Coastguard After Seaford Head Landslide

Seaford Cliff

People are being warned to stay well away from cliff edges after a further landslide at Seaford Head.

The coastguard says it's after a 'significant rockfall' was reported in the area at around 5.30pm on Monday.

It follows a large area of the coastal path being cordoned off after a cliff falls around Brighton Marina AND between Seaford Head and Hope Gap in Kent last month.

The Environment Agency, the British Geological Survey and West Sussex County Council have been informed. 

Dai Jones, Coastguard Duty Controller said:

"If you're lucky enough to live near the coast and be in a position to take your exercise there in line with local COVID-19 restrictions, please do be careful near cliffs. Some of them are really unstable at the moment and could easily collapse. Stay well back, wear appropriate sturdy footwear and ensure that you check tide times and weather before setting out. If you or someone else is in difficulty call 999 and ask for the Coastguard."
