The cliffs rise 162 metres (530 feet) above the sea below and it is the highest chalk sea cliff in Britain. According to 'trusty' Wiki, the chalk "was formed in the Cretaceous period when the area was under the sea, 65 million years ago. Since then, earth movements have raised the chalk up to form the dramatic cliffs of the Sussex coast."
It is definitely much more dramatic in person than in pictures!
