What is recorded here
Chinese Wall is a sandstone sea cliff formed during the Permian period, approximately 250 to 300 million years ago, through the deposition of wind-blown sediments in a desert environment. It is notable for its striking vertical face and the exposure of the Millstone Grit group, which is significant for understanding the geological history of the region.
