Part of the Southwell Business Park buildings fall into this area but, for simplicity, the whole of the site is described in the next area east - please hit the E button above.

The cliffs are precarious at this point and have eroded in living memory.

A difficult path exists which will allow foolhardy adventurers to get down the cliffs. This is seen as the dogleg track marked by red dots midway up the red square  in the photograph above.

This is what lies down this path.

It is very dangerous and parts of the path have disappeared in the past year.

Do not go here!
