A beautiful thatched cottage in Devon has been left on the brink of disaster after a series of major rockfalls means it is now teetering on the cliff edge.

The white, conical roofed property is now just 40ft from the sheer drop at the eroding Sidmouth cliffs in Devon, along the Jurassic coast.

Aerial photos capture how huge sections of the 185 million-year old cliffs have already given way in recent months, leaving the homeowners at nature’s mercy.

A few hundred yards further along the coast, thousands of tons of debris plummeted to the ground near Jacob’s Ladder just last weekend.

The popular South West coastal path has since been closed for safety reasons and East Devon Council warned people to ‘stay away from the unstable cliffs’.
