What is recorded here
The Little Horse Shoe is a small bay with sea cliffs composed primarily of Silurian greywacke and volcanic rocks, formed through sedimentation and volcanic activity around 440–420 million years ago. The area is notable for its well-exposed coastal geology, which reflects the complex tectonic history of the Scottish Caledonides.
