What is recorded here

Shag Looe Head is a headland composed primarily of Jurassic limestone, formed around 150 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. It is notable for its coastal erosion features and for supporting a small colony of seabirds, including shags, which contribute to its ecological significance.
