Best Answer

If your house is built on a cliff, it can be very dangerous. The cliff could get weathered (erosion of the cliff due to the weather conditions), it could be eroded by the sea (strong waves can wear away at the cliff face) or, just over time, the cliff face could gradually recede causing any buildings to be in a large amount of danger as, when the cliff recedes, the edge will get closer and closer to the buildings until they begin to hang off the edge. This will continue to happen and then the buildings will go crashing down into the sea. There is no way of stopping erosion of cliffs as natural sources are the cause.
