What is recorded here
Rubha Creagan Dubha is a headland composed primarily of Devonian sandstone, formed around 400 million years ago through sedimentary deposition in a shallow marine environment. It is notable for its resistant rock formations that have withstood coastal erosion, contributing to the dramatic sea cliffs characteristic of the North Ayrshire coastline.
