Dinosaur Island App – Bonchurch Landslip – Setting

Dinosaur Island App trail: Bonchurch Landslip location

There’s a car park conveniently located near the Bonchurch Landslip meteorite on the Dinosaur Island App trail.

That said, it is a little tricky to find. Exit the car park down through the right-hand corner, turning slightly to the left.

A path leads you down to a line of trees stretching to away to the right.

The Meteorite is hidden behind those.

More to see
Walking away from the the car park a little along the road, you’ll get a stunning view of the chalk cliffs of Culver Downs.

A very special place indeed. Went to a party there once, was fantastic location. Glad to see that it’s being looked after.

This is great news! It would be sad to see the Island lose any more of our historic piers.

This is great news. Our holiday cottage is just up the lane from the pier. Although the pier is currently a lovely place full of character and great for a coffee and ice cream after time on the beach, the plans for the replacement structures look fantastic.

Can anyone tell me what is happening with this so-called restoration? I went there today expecting to see a new pier nearing completion, but it seems nothing has been done.

Last I heard there were delays with the planning department.

Not much has been happening for a long time. I emailed Bell-Cornwell and was told in April that latice supports had been made and were away being galvanized and that work would commence again shortly. Also that the cafe would be finished by November. Yesterday 5th June 2012 I email Bell-Cornwell again twice and both times they came back unknown. Has anyone any news?
