Outgang Scar is shown as a cliff on the public map of North Yorkshire. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Outgang Scar is a sea cliff composed primarily of Jurassic limestone, formed around 160 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. The cliff is notable for its exposure of well-bedded limestone strata, which provide insights into the region's Mesozoic geological history and are of interest to local geologists and fossil collectors.
