What is recorded here
Nettle Crags is a sea cliff composed primarily of Carboniferous limestone, formed around 340 to 320 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. The crags are notable for their dramatic coastal exposure and potential for fossil content, reflecting a time of shallow tropical seas covering the region.
