My house is falling off a cliff but I WON’T move out – flimsy wooden planks are the only thing keeping it upright
AN elderly woman is refusing to budge from her precarious clifftop home that's being held up by flimsy wooden planks.
Marian Walters, 80, who has called Priory Gardens in Folkestone home for the past 48 years, is standing her ground as her property dangles above a landslide-stricken slope.
The chaos started in January, when trees and debris began to tumble down the cliff.
Since then her home has been clinging on for dear life with nothing but flimsy wooden planks and 14-foot pilings to keep it from falling.
Marian told Kent Online: “I’m not going anywhere.
"I'm on a floating platform and I've got 14-foot pilings at the back of my drive, so even if the land did slip I would be okay.
"I am very happy here and I won't be moving for anyone. I have been made to feel safe."
Marian's defiance comes despite the Road of Remembrance being closed since January due to ongoing landslides, with a second slip hitting in February.

Kent County Council has been scrambling to address the issue, and are working on ground investigation tests to prevent future collapses.
They have confirmed the road won’t be reopening anytime soon.
KCC is currently in the midst of extensive investigations.
Their investigations include removing trees and vegetation to assess the embankment, installing borehole sampling pits, and conducting critical testing to ensure the stability of the area.
This testing phase, expected to last three weeks, aims to ensure that such landslides won’t be a problem for another 120 years but until then, the Road of Remembrance remains shut.
For some locals, the road closure is more than just an inconvenience - it's a daily nightmare.
