What is recorded here
Hordron Edge is shown as a cliff on the public map of High Peak. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Hordron Edge is a sandstone sea cliff or coastal rock feature, likely formed during the Permian period, around 250 to 300 million years ago, through the deposition and lithification of aeolian and fluvial sediments. It is notable for its exposure of the Millstone Grit Group, which is significant for understanding the geological history of the South Pennines.
