Box Bay

Cliff

Why this matters

Box Bay consists of Carboniferous limestone, approximately 300 million years old, formed from marine sediments in a shallow tropical sea. The cliff is notable for its well-exposed stratification and fossil content, typical of the South Wales Coalfield region.

What is recorded here

Box Bay is shown as a cliff on the public map of Bridgend. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
