What is recorded here

Hart Crag is shown as a cliff on the public map of Westmorland and Furness. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Hart Crag is a sea cliff composed primarily of Ordovician-age volcanic and sedimentary rocks, formed around 470 to 450 million years ago through volcanic activity and subsequent marine deposition. It is notable for its well-exposed geological sections that provide insights into the ancient volcanic and sedimentary history of the English Lake District region.
