Why this matters
Oxwich Point is a sea cliff composed mainly of Carboniferous limestone, formed around 340–320 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. The cliff is notable for its exposure of fossil-rich rock layers and its role in the geological history of the South Wales coalfield.
