He Said : " At least This Time of the year, everything is drying out a lot. I'm hoping to get a good Summer here at least… but Who Knows ?
" I've got The Fence to support me if I need to hang on. . I manage. It'll be alright. "
Karl Love, an independent councillor on The Island , said he was " incredibly concerned" for Mr Gardiner's safety.
He Said it would not be long before The House slipped off the cliff and into The Sea .
Southern Water said it had received a claim that a leaking pipe had " allegedly caused subsidence to the property".
It added: " This matter is complex and has been referred to our insurers who are currently investigating liability.
" Without prejudice to ongoing liability investigations, an offer of alternative accommodation has been made to Mr Gardiner. "
The Island authority said landslips were " not uncommon" in the area.
" The Council have erected temporary coastal path diversion signage and The Situation will be monitored and reopening opportunities will be considered once the current damage has settled, " it said.
