CLIFF WALK......COULD SPELL DANGER

[BIG HITTER]

I HAVE JUST RETURNED FROM A WALK ALONG THE CLIFF TOPS BETWEEN RYHOPE DEAN AND HENDON, AND I WOULD URGE ANGLERS AND INDEED ANYONE ELSE TO BE VERY CAREFUL , THE CLIFFS HAVE ONCE AGAIN FELL VICTIM OF LANDSLIPS MAKING FOR DUBIOUS  CONDITIONS ESPECIALLY IN DARKNESS.

[MRTT]

has the arch dropped yet ?

NO but its looking mighty precarious,watched 3 land slides of the cliffs in the last 2 weeks

[eddie t]

Getting worse them cliffs.

[bazw]

aye only 100 metres or so then we can all fish from the new road once the rail link has washd away  :HPY3:

cheers mate wouldnt mind seeing that ,deya not take a camera with ya .

were we went on holiday the goverment are starting to put walkways along all the seafronts where the land has slipped into the sea ,its a good idea one the tourists get a nice path and 2 its making it a bit safer for the peeps.this country will wait till someone falls intothe sea before anything is done ,we only put gravel down and they say enjoy.

I take it the cliffs are clay if they're washing away at that rate.

Yes Trev they are bit rain and big sea big tide thats it they are away you have to check the cliff a few hour before fishing them.

[codho]

Be well dodgy at the moment then some of the rain we've had,do many people fish off them or are they mainly access to fishing marks.

[eddie t]

There is loads of cliff marks from Hendon to seaham hall Trev and there's a few lads fish them
as well.

the cliffs look like they are an old coral reef with sand stone and top soil  about 20M high ,  undercuts easy with the sea and washes off the top easy with rain
