Why this matters

Rashick Knap is a headland composed primarily of Silurian greywacke, formed around 440–420 million years ago during sedimentary deposition and subsequent tectonic compression. Its resistant rock forms a prominent coastal feature, illustrating the durability of Silurian sedimentary sequences against marine erosion.

What is recorded here

Rashick Knap is shown as a headland on the public map of Angus. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
