Gad Cliff, Limestone cliff in Dorset, England
The steep coastal cliff face rises 134 meters above sea level, featuring complex sedimentary folding patterns visible along its exposed surfaces.
The cliff area near Tyneham village was evacuated in 1943 during World War II, transforming a populated coastal region into a military training ground.
The South West Coast Path running along Gad Cliff connects multiple geological formations, creating a natural corridor for coastal exploration and nature study.
Access to Gad Cliff requires checking the Lulworth Ranges opening times and starting from either Tyneham car park or Kimmeridge Bay entrance points.
Wagon Rock, a massive limestone boulder that separated from the main cliff face, now stands as a distinct marker on the shoreline below.
