What is recorded here
Snook Head is a coastal headland composed primarily of Old Red Sandstone, formed during the Devonian period around 400 to 360 million years ago. The rock was deposited in ancient river and delta systems, and the headland is notable for its resistant sandstone formations that have withstood coastal erosion, creating a prominent and enduring feature along the Fife coast.
