Chine
A chine is a steep-sided river valley where the river flows through coastal cliffs to the sea. Typically these are soft eroding cliffs such as sandstone or clays. The word chine originates from the
Saxon "Cinan" meaning a gap or yawn. The word is in use in central southern
England; in
Hampshire,
Dorset and particularly the
Isle of Wight. In Dorset, west of
Bournemouth is found Branksome Chine and Alum Chine, and east towards
Boscombe, Honeycombe Chine. There are nineteen chines on the Isle of Wight including the popular tourist attraction
Shanklin Chine. All chines are in a state of constant change due to erosion, and the most well-known example,
Blackgang Chine, has been destroyed by landslides and coastal erosion during the
20th century.
