What is recorded here
Holdron Castle is a sea cliff composed primarily of Carboniferous limestone, formed around 340 to 320 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. The cliff is notable for its exposure of durable limestone strata, which provide insight into the region's ancient marine environment and contribute to the distinctive coastal landscape.
