What is recorded here
Kirkhead End is a headland composed primarily of Carboniferous limestone, formed around 340 to 320 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. It is notable for its resistant rock formations that have withstood coastal erosion, contributing to the distinctive landscape of the Westmorland and Furness coast.
