What is recorded here

Bannerdale Crags is shown as a cliff on the public map of Westmorland and Furness. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Bannerdale Crags is a sea cliff composed primarily of Carboniferous limestone, formed around 340 to 320 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. The crags are notable for their exposure of fossil-rich rock layers and their role in illustrating the geological history of the English Lake District's coastal areas.
