Danger on the cliff edge! The popular footpath T16 along the coast to Headon Warren has been shut tight after erosion caused a terrifying 40-metre sheer drop.

Cliff Collapse Puts Walkers at Risk

Photos reveal the cliff has been crumbling since last Monday, making the route unsafe for anyone brave enough to try it.

Official Diversion in Place

The Isle of Wight Council has shut T16 for safety reasons and is directing walkers to take footpath T17 by Warren Cottage instead.

Stick to the new route and stay well back from the edge – this is no time for cliffside adventures!
