A379 collapses between Slapton and Torcross
A section of coastal road in Devon has washed away after weeks of severe weather.
Part of the A379, between Torcross and Slapton in the South Hams, collapsed overnight following strong winds and heavy waves.
The road is a scenic route, with the sea on one side and Slapton Ley freshwater lake on the other, and also links Torcross with Dartmouth and the surrounding communities.
Sea defences protecting the road were damaged last month.
The leader of Devon County Council said repairs would be costly and is calling on the government for finanical help.
