What is recorded here
Black Buttress 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 striking dark appearance, likely due to weathering or mineral staining, and contributes to the dramatic coastal scenery of the Swansea area.
