- Lulworth Cove, near Durdle Door, saw a landslip in February earlier this year
Drone footage has revealed the shocking extent of the latest landfall at a beauty spot on Dorset's Jurassic Coast.
Lulworth Cove, located near the landmark Durdle Door, saw a dramatic landslip in February earlier this year.
Aerial footage of the secluded pocket shows how the cove is now partially cut off due to the build up.
Raw, white rock can be seen down the grassy cliff face and piled into the clear blue water of the curved bay.
The shocking images show the extent of the huge rockfall at the beauty spot that happened on February 18.

Lulworth Cove is visited by thousands of people each year who come to see the panoramic views and clear waters on the World Heritage Site.
It is also located nearby East Cliff, which is known for featuring in drama series Broadchurch.
Nearby Durdle Door is also a popular spot and features a stunning natural limestone arch.
A Lulworth Cove spokesperson told MailOnline how there has not been any major landfall since the February incident but that small sections of rock have fallen over time.
Soon after the slide earlier this year the Lulworth Cove area experienced a spree of wild weather and a local cafe was declared structurally unsafe.
A spokesperson for the Lulworth Rangers told the Dorset Echo at the time: 'February is often a month with severe changes in environmental conditions, making the cliffs more prone to landslips as frozen material may thaw quickly, and heavy rainfall undermines stability too.

'The cliffs at Lulworth Cove are showing signs of instability. Small slips like this have been happening all morning. Take care at the base and top of cliffs and check tides to ensure you don't inadvertently put yourself in harm's way.'
It comes as further along the Jurassic Coast - Burton Bradstock - also saw significant rock fall in April.
Images of the rockfall show boulders the size of double-decker buses resting on top of a 50ft pile of debris that has blocked the popular beach.
The mass shift of rock opened up discussion over the possibility of using barriers to help support cliff faces.

Baroness Brown, member of the UK climate change committee argued that although we must protect public safety the 'last thing you want to do is to be putting in place engineering structures' as 'all those things are unsightly,' she previously told BBC Radio 4.
Professor Ian Townend at the University of Southampton also previously argued that it is 'highly likely' that putting in erosion protection to the cliff will just lead to further problems.
The area experienced the significant rockfall after a battering from Storm Kathleen, which saw 600 tons fall of the cliff face in April.
