What is recorded here
Park Bean Cove consists of Upper Devonian slate and sandstone, formed around 360 million years ago through sedimentary deposition and subsequent metamorphism. The cove is notable for its well-exposed coastal cliffs, which provide a classic example of the transition between the Penwith and Land's End granite complexes and the surrounding sedimentary rocks.
