What is recorded here
Sanaigmore Bay features sandstone and limestone rock formations, likely from the Carboniferous period, around 300 to 360 million years old. These rocks formed from ancient sedimentary deposits in shallow seas and are notable for their exposure of layered geological structures along the coastal cliffs.
