What is recorded here
Henna Cliff is a sea cliff located in Cornwall, composed primarily of Devonian slate and schist. These rocks formed around 380 million years ago through regional metamorphism of sedimentary layers, and the cliff is notable for its exposure of ancient, folded rock structures that reflect tectonic activity during the Variscan Orogeny.
