What is recorded here

Dumhaigh Léireabháin is a headland composed primarily of Silurian greywacke, formed around 440–420 million years ago through deep-sea sedimentation and subsequent tectonic compression. The rock is notable for its durability, contributing to the prominent coastal topography and resisting erosion along the western Irish seaboard.
