Seaward Face

Cliff

Why this matters

Seaward Face is a coastal cliff face in Cornwall, composed primarily of Devonian slate, formed around 380 million years ago through sedimentary deposition and subsequent metamorphism. It is notable for its exposure of ancient rock layers that provide insight into the geological history of the Cornubian Batholith region.
