What is recorded here
Blackaller's Cove consists of Jurassic limestone, approximately 150 to 200 million years old, formed from the accumulation of marine sediments in a shallow tropical sea. The cove is notable for its well-exposed coastal cliffs, which provide a local example of the Torbay Group, a key geological unit for understanding the region's Mesozoic history.
