Looking east from the footpath along the clifftop. The area was developed from the first decade of the twentieth century onwards on land leased by Ambrose Gorham, then the major landowner in Telscombe. The cream buildings in the centre of the picture are now the Badger's Watch pub. Prior to that they were early 19th century coastguard cottages and the only buildings to be found along this stretch of the cliffs before 1900.
