What is recorded here
Porth y Pwll is a coastal bay in Gwynedd, Wales, characterized by sea cliffs and rocky shores formed primarily from Silurian slate, around 440 to 420 million years old. The cliffs were shaped by tectonic activity and subsequent erosion by the sea, and the site is notable for its typical examples of ancient Welsh geology and coastal processes.
