Why this matters
Gosforth Crag is a 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 exposure of ancient rock layers and its role in illustrating the geological history of the Cumberland coast.
