Landslip 'early warning system' installed by residents
Residents in an East Sussex town have taken action to protect their homes from landslips.
The Hydraulic Activity Stabilisation Training Enterprise (Haste) said it had begun installing sensors to monitor the cliff system in Hastings and St Leonards, following landslides in the area.
"Think of these sensors as an early warning system," said a spokesperson for the community interest company.
"They continuously measure vibration and water pressure in the soil – two key factors that geologists know can trigger landslides."
