Why this matters

Hella Point is a sea cliff composed primarily of Devonian slate, formed around 380 million years ago through the deposition and compression of marine sediments. The cliff is notable for its exposure of ancient metamorphic rocks that are part of the broader Cornubian Batholith, significant for their association with tin and mineral vein systems in the region.

What is recorded here

Hella Point is shown as a cliff on the public map of Cornwall. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
