What is recorded here
Buzzard's Roost is a sea cliff in County Down, composed primarily of basalt formed during the Paleogene period through volcanic activity. The cliff is notable for its association with the broader basaltic formations of the Antrim Plateau, which were shaped by ancient lava flows and subsequent coastal erosion.
