People have been urged to stay safe near fragile cliffs days after visitors were spotted too close to the edge.
National Trust colleagues at Birling Gap have issued advice to tourists who will be around the cliff base and the cliff tops.
It comes just days after two people were spotted dangling their legs over the cliff tops nearby.

A spokesman for the National Trust said: "Our white cliffs are beautiful but also very fragile.
"They may appear safe to stand on but chalk is a soft rock that can be become unstable through heavy rain, frost, sun or undercut by wind and wave action.
"The sea comes in and out twice a day and often reaches the base of the cliffs. Make sure you can always safely exit the beach keeping the platform steps in sight."
