Why this matters
Rochard Crags is a sea cliff composed primarily of Jurassic limestone, formed around 150 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 coastal erosion processes along the Yorkshire coast.
