Original Toronto Star caption: Time to beat a retreat. The debris from a veranda on this house on Birchmount Pl. clings to the face of the Scarborough Bluffs. The owner, Tim Palmer, says he feels there is no danger of the house dropping over the bluffs, but he has applied to Scarborough for zoning changes so he can build another home further back on his lot.
