Goat Island In Devon

Undergrowth at Goat Island near Rousdon, Devon, England, United Kingdom. This enchanted place came into existence during what is known as the Great Landslip, when on Christmas Eve 1839 a chunk of the coastline broke away and slid towards the sea, leaving a chasm between it and the land. It quickly became famous, attracting many sightseers, and was especially noted as the first natural event to be studied and described by scientific means.
