These cliffs run in a more-or-less straight-line from the Newhaven Heights, just out of shot to the right, all the way to Brighton, with a small dip at Saltdean and a deeper one at Rottingdean.
Between these two headlands lies the estuary of the Sussex Ouse. The river runs into the sea through Newhaven and its harbour.
It is unusual to see the Newhaven light without its long curving breakwater.
Among the many fairly standard seaside bungalows, overlooking the sea at Peacehaven, this one, with its octagonal roof stands out. It may well have started out with a conventional pitched roof and had a loft conversion done, in a rather stylish way.
I seem to have just caught the end of this plant's flowering season. There were masses of these plants on the cliffs at Peacehaven Heights, but most of the flowers were just dried seed heads.
I suspect that this couple had joined the undercliff pathway at a point where the access was easier. Clearly they hadn't bargained on a climb up 30+metre cliffs. At this point they were less than halfway up. You can see the whole cliff in www.ipernity.com/doc/philsutters/35062977
