What is recorded here
Robin Hood's Stone is a coastal rock feature located in County Durham, formed from Carboniferous limestone, approximately 340 to 300 million years old. It is notable for its historical and folkloric association with the legend of Robin Hood, though its geological significance lies in its representation of the region's extensive limestone formations shaped by marine deposition and subsequent coastal erosion.
