What is recorded here
Forest Cove consists mainly of Devonian-age sedimentary rocks, including sandstone and shale, formed around 380 million years ago through the deposition of river and marine sediments. The area is notable for its well-preserved coastal exposures that provide insight into the geological history of the South Hams region.
