Kirkcaldy Harbour

Kirkcaldy Harbour is shown as a bay on the public map of Fife. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.

Kirkcaldy Harbour is a coastal feature cut into Carboniferous sandstone and conglomerate, approximately 300 to 320 million years old. The rock formations were deposited in a fluvial and deltaic environment and later uplifted and eroded by marine processes, forming the present-day harbour and surrounding cliffs, which are notable for their accessibility and exposure of ancient sedimentary layers.
