What is recorded here

Park 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.

Park Scar is a sea cliff composed primarily of Jurassic limestone, formed around 150–160 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. It is notable for its exposure of the Whitby Mudstone Formation, which is significant for fossil-rich layers and its role in understanding the region’s Mesozoic geological history.
