What is recorded here
Derwent Foot is a coastal rock feature or sea cliff composed primarily of Carboniferous limestone, formed around 340 to 320 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. It is notable for its role in the coastal geomorphology of the Derwent Bay area and for its potential to expose fossil-rich strata.
