What is recorded here
Snook Point is a coastal headland composed primarily of Carboniferous sandstone, formed around 300 to 360 million years ago through sedimentary deposition in ancient river and delta systems. The rock is notable for its resistance to erosion, which has allowed it to form a prominent landform along the Northumberland coast.
