Boulder Ruckle

Cliff

Why this matters

Boulder Ruckle is a sea cliff composed primarily of Jurassic limestone, formed around 150 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. It is notable for its exposure of the Purbeck Group, which includes fossil-rich layers that provide insights into the region's ancient coastal environments.
