Derwent Edge

Derwent Edge is shown as a cliff on the public map of High Peak. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.

Derwent Edge is a Carboniferous limestone sea cliff, approximately 300 to 320 million years old, formed through sedimentation in a shallow tropical sea. It is notable for its dramatic coastal exposure and the presence of fossil-rich layers that provide insights into ancient marine life.
