What is recorded here

Hause 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.
Hause Crag is a sea cliff composed of Ordovician-age volcanic and sedimentary rocks, formed through volcanic activity and subsequent marine deposition around 470 to 450 million years ago. It is notable for its exposure of the Borrowdale Volcanic Group, which provides important insights into ancient volcanic and tectonic processes in the Lake District region.
