What is recorded here
Birkie Knott is a sea cliff composed primarily of Carboniferous limestone, formed around 340 to 320 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. It is notable for its exposure of durable limestone strata that contribute to the distinctive coastal topography of the Westmorland and Furness area.
