A quaint chalet that featured in a hit ITV crime drama is now just 15ft away from the edge of a cliff, following severe rockfalls in the area.
The wooden lodge at Eype, near West Bay in Dorset, which was the scene the murder in series one of Broadchurch, is now on the cliff edge of the UNESCO World Heritage Jurassic Coast.
The phenomenal natural cliffs, which stand at 140ft tall and more than 180 million year old have recent lost huge chunks of rock due to being battered by bad weather.
In shots from the show you can clearly see the cast of Broadchurch, including the tenth Doctor Who David Tennant and Academy Award winner Olivia Coleman, standing on a piece of land beneath the chalet which is no longer there.

But their proposal angered nearby holiday home owners who claimed the new location will obscure their sea
