SY9178 : Coast path east from Cuddle

near to Kimmeridge, Dorset, Great Britain

Coast path east from Cuddle
Coast path east from Cuddle
The coast path leads along the crumbling cliff-top. Underfoot is the high ground of Cuddle. A seam of blackstone (oil shale) outcrops in the cliff below (off to the left) and on the left of this photo is a cutting that once carried the 1848 tramway of the Bituminous Shale Co. The tramway was connected to the workings north of D Plantation (off to the right), and from there it ran down towards a wooden pier that stood off the old sea-wall beside Maple Ledge in Kimmeridge Bay.
