What is recorded here
Salt Ness is shown as a headland on the public map of Shetland Islands. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Salt Ness is a sea cliff or coastal rock feature composed primarily of Old Red Sandstone, formed during the Devonian period around 400 to 360 million years ago. It is notable as part of the rugged coastal geology of the Shetland Islands, shaped by marine erosion and representing the ancient sedimentary deposits of a former continental margin.
