Visitors have been flocking to the Isle of Sheppey to take selfies of themselves in front of a dangerous cliff-top home which has become an unwanted attraction.

So many people have ended up in Eastchurch since the weekend's landslide that Swale council has told them to stay away.

In a blunt social media warning posted last night, the council said: "We’ve fenced off an area at the top of a collapsing cliff with 'danger keep out' signs.

"To be clear, this means that it’s unsafe and you shouldn’t go in there.

"People should not be breaching the safety cordon in Eastchurch to take pictures or film videos to post on social media."

It added: "You are risking your own lives, and the lives of the emergency services who will need to respond if something happens."

Another chunk of the cliff in Surf Crescent tumbled into the sea yesterday taking the remains of Emma Tullett's £190,000 bungalow with it.

Sightseers had been seen taking photos of themselves in front of the home which had been left teetering on the brink.

Residents who warned visitors to stay clear of the edge and to take notice of the Keep Out danger signs said they had suffered verbal abuse as a result.

The front drive of the house and family car went over the edge on Friday night.

Swale council and Kent Fire and Rescue Services have published their own photos of the disaster site.

There have also been many pictures and videos shot using drones.

In a further tweet this evening, the council said the family who lost their home had been offered a property on Sheppey and another three households were still in temporary accommodation but would be moved "closer to their properties soon".

The local authority also said specialist surveyors had started a survey of the cliff.

Their subsequent report, which could take several days to produce, will then guide what further decisions will be taken about the properties.

The tweet added: "The site has again been inspected and we are satisfied the current safety cordon remains appropriate.

"People are being reminded to stay away from the area."
