PLYMOUTH - A woman was rescued from a car that crashed down a steep cliff in Plymouth Tuesday afternoon. 

The car came to rest on rocks about 20 feet down a rocky embankment off Manomet Point Road, just above the coastline.

Firefighters used a winch and cable to secure the car in the location where it came to rest. The woman was removed from the car and put on a specially designed stretcher to be pulled up to the road using ropes.
