What is recorded here
Sannox Bay features sandstone and conglomerate cliffs formed during the Carboniferous period, around 300 million years ago, through sedimentary deposition in a shallow marine environment. The area is notable for its well-exposed coastal sections that provide insights into ancient river and delta systems.
