Video shows moment of cliff collapse on Dorset's Jurassic Coast

A huge rockfall on Dorset's Jurassic Coast has been caught on camera.

The first sign of the collapse at West Bay started with puffs of dust before a large section of cliff crumbles on to the beach below.

The fall, on 18 January, was captured by a camera placed on a pier to monitor the beach by the Environment Agency.

It has blocked access in both directions between Burton Bradstock and West Bay - the public is being urged to avoid the area.
