West Bay: Drone footage shows three rockfalls block beach

Drone footage has revealed the extent of three large landslips that have blocked access to a beach in Dorset. The video showed the aftermath of the cliff collapse at West Bay, Bridport, with large pieces of rock left jutting out perilously over the beach.

The last known large collapse on East Beach occurred in November following Storm Ciarán. Dorset Council has warned people to stay clear of the area, posting on social media: "If you are out on the coast, please stay safe by taking notice of warning signs and keep to existing paths."

A woman was forced to run to safety as the cliff collapsed on Saturday. The incident is the latest in a series of landslips along the Jurassic Coast in Dorset.
