What is recorded here
Knavocks is a sea cliff located in Cornwall, composed primarily of Devonian slate and formed through the uplift and subsequent erosion of ancient sedimentary rocks. The cliff is notable for its exposure of the Cornish Slide, a major geological fault zone that played a significant role in the region's structural development.
