What is recorded here

Bank Scar is shown as a cliff on the public map of North Yorkshire. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.

Bank Scar is a sea cliff composed primarily of Carboniferous limestone, formed around 340 to 320 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. The cliff is notable for its exposure of durable limestone strata, which contribute to the characteristic geomorphology of the Yorkshire coast and provide insight into ancient reef environments.
