What is recorded here
Cúinne an Mhionnáin is a headland composed primarily of basalt, formed during the Paleogene period through volcanic activity associated with the opening of the North Atlantic. It is notable for its columnar jointing, a result of the rapid cooling of lava flows, and for its coastal exposure that highlights the region's volcanic geological history.
