A young woman who died after being buried by tonnes of rock following a landslide on a beach in Dorset was named today as Charlotte Blackman from Derbyshire. The incident took place at the Freshwater Beach holiday park at Burton Bradstock beach.
A lecturer in Oceanography at the University of Southampton, Simon Boxall, has told Daybreak's Katy Fawcett that the heavy rain over the summer has led to the increase of landslides.
He said: "This rainfall is washing away that soft sediment between the rocks and as it's drying out it's becoming very fractus and it's just falling away onto the beach."
