Fossil hunters hoping for a bonanza of ancient rocks are being urged to stay away from a massive 4,000 tonne rockfall on the historic Jurassic Coast.
A huge chunk from a 430ft sandstone cliff gave way on Monday night causing boulders the size of cars to plummet near Seatown in Dorset.
The resulting mound of rubble has completely blocked a picturesque sandy beach but experts are imploring members of the public to keep their distance for safety reasons.
