taken 6 years ago, near to Penwithick, Cornwall, England

South Carluddon Tip
South Carluddon Tip
The china clay waste is being rapidly weathered by rain creating gullies down its slopes. It looks for all the world like a small volcano!

Compare with SX0255 : China Clay Spoil Heap at Carluddon to see how much erosion there has been in three years.
