Artist / Photographer: Big4Ker The Old Harry Rocks are two chalk stacks located at Handfast Point on the Dorset coast in south England, directly east of Studland, about 4 km NE of Swanage, and about 10 km south of the large towns of Poole and Bournemouth. The rocks mark the eastern end of the Jurassic Coast UNESCO World Heritage Site. They can be seen from the Dorset Coast Path, the Dorset section of the South West Coast Path. The cliff is chalk, with some bands of flint, which have been gradually reduced over the centuries, some of the earlier stacks having fallen (Old Harry's original wife fell in 1896), while new ones have been formed by the breaching of narrow isthmuses.
