Yes, that's the Head as it was in the Iron Age. The dotted line on the model shows you the present location of the cliff. The disappearing headland is a consequence of human activity over the past few centuries, in particular the removal of ironstone boulders from the shore, cliff and seabed here and further west around the bay. Lots of interesting information at http://www.hengistbury.head.btinternet.co.uk/
