High Cup Scar 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.
High Cup Scar is a sea cliff composed mainly of Carboniferous limestone, formed around 340–320 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. It is notable for its dramatic coastal exposure and the presence of fossil-rich rock layers that provide insights into ancient marine environments.
