What is recorded here

Calf Crag 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.
Calf Crag is a sea cliff or coastal rock feature composed of Ordovician volcanic and sedimentary rocks, formed around 470 to 450 million years ago through volcanic activity and subsequent marine deposition. It is notable for its exposure of ancient volcanic sequences and associated sedimentary layers, which contribute to the geological understanding of the Lake District region.
