ANOTHER section of cliff top and woodland has collapsed between Watchet and Blue Anchor.
The Crown Estate has already closed a section of cliff path following a massive landslide last month, which saw a 200 metre-long section of cliff disappear.
Now another section has gone and despite the obvious dangers, coastguards said people were ignoring the closure and continuing to try and walk what was left of the cliff-top path.
Watchet Coastguard member Simon Bale said: "A large section of woodland and field east of the Beeches Holiday Park has fallen into the sea.

"The cliff path was recently closed by the Crown Estate, however, it is apparent that many people are ignoring the warnings and are still walking this now dangerous section of cliff path unaware that a large area is unstable and continuing to slide into the sea."
Coastguards said anyone thinking of ignoring the closure should think twice as more sections could collapse at any time.
"Anyone using the beach should also keep well away from loose material that has already slipped into the sea," Mr Bale said.
