Rock Walk; Before the assault.

These are just a few photos to show how neglected Rock Walk has become over the years. People are saying the council should have done something years ago and blaming the poor sods that are in charge now. But it needed work doing 30 years ago and this lot have only been in since Last May and are doing some thing.
Only in one spot could you actually see anything other than trees.

If you could have sat on that bench this is all you would have seen.

And Rock Walk from Torr Abbey Sands on a bright summers day.

Photos from midair.

These Photos were taken from the bucket hanging by a thin wire hundreds of feet up in the air. Not by me though, I'm not that brave. They were taken by Gemma Harvey ( the one in green) who works for Devon Trees Services in the admin department but gets to experience life on the cliff face now and then as a perk of the job.

Going up.

The Marina.


That crane looks quiet small from here.


The cliff face.

The Pier Cafe and Princess Theatre. And a road that is closed for buses.

View

One big lump of wood standing on the pavement at the bottem of the cliff
when once it stood at the top of the cliff.

A Before and After Shot

Taken Jan 30
Taken Feb 8
Which shows how much work has been done.

Notes about the blog. Updated 08 March 2008

Not much is happening at Rock Work now. All the work clearing the trees has been done. A barrier has been erected to prevent rock falls from reaching the road. Now we wait for the geological survey in May to see what can be done to fix the rocks in place.
After that when work starts again later in the year I will post more photos.
Any news items I come across I will post as they appear in the local paper.

Or you can work through the whole blog to find more detail.

If you left click on a photo you get a larger image.
