Why this matters

Horse Rocks is a coastal rock feature composed primarily of Devonian-age sedimentary rock, formed around 380 million years ago through the deposition of sand and silt in ancient river and delta systems. The rocks are notable for their distinctive shape and erosion patterns, which have been shaped by millennia of wave action along the southern English coast.
