People are putting themselves in danger at the West Bay rockfalls

It seems that some members of the public are ignoring the warning signs and barriers near the rockfalls at West Bay near Bridport. The clear advice on the signs is to ‘Keep away from rockfall area’ and ‘Stay away from cliffs’.

But our KeeP 106 sports reporter, Idris Martin, who took the photos below says: “People are ignoring the warning signs to keep out of the rockfall area in West Bay.

“Look at the size of that rock! You wouldn’t have a chance if that hit you, and in the last picture you can see the recent rockfalls and some people are sunbathing right below the cliff.”

West Bay Monday afternoon. Despite the warning signs some people put their lives at risk of rockfalls.
