Rumness is a sea cliff or coastal rock feature composed primarily of Devonian sandstone, formed around 400 to 360 million years ago through sedimentary deposition in a shallow marine environment. It is notable as a prominent headland in Angus, contributing to the region's rugged coastal landscape and offering insights into the geological history of eastern Scotland.
