As far as I am aware, the West Bay coastal path is closed due to many landslip and the path disappearing into the bay.

Not easy to get to, but a great burial mound! We only found the easier access on the way back.

Car park at the beach is relatively cheap. toilets are 24 hours open and clean. The shingle beach is...well, a nightmare for miles upon miles of relentless trudging.

The cliff top is closed due to massive erosion and possible land slips. There is a diversion which leads through the golf course.

A lot of coastal erosion at this area as of late, and sections of cliffs, above and below are now off limits to members of the public to due safety reasons. West bay and the cliffs are the locations used for the ITV drama Broadchurch. Fascinating looking around the the little fishing village and seeing the locations used in person.

Quite the climb up, regardless of which side you choose. Experts now believe people lived on Doghouse Hill on the Golden Cap estate up to 10,000 years ago. Finds included a stone hearth, fire pit and pot shards from Bronze Age periods (2,500 to 1,000BC) and others from the Mesolithic Age (10,000 to 4,000BC) Martin Papworth, from the National Trust, said: "Although it's a stunning coastal site now, 6,000 to 8,000 years ago this area would have been over a mile inland. To find ancient pottery decorated with fingernail impressions and touch them with one's own hand, that's real contact with the past Martin Papworth, National Trust "The Mesolithic people who lived on top of Doghouse hill would have pre-dated farming, so would have been hunter-gatherers using these flints to work hides, cut meat and scrape fat from animal skins. "After millennia of erosion, it's at risk of disappearing into the sea itself."
