The Souter is a sea cliff located in the Scottish Borders, composed primarily of Silurian greywacke and volcanic rocks, formed around 440 to 420 million years ago during the Caledonian orogeny. Its notable steep profile and resistant rock formations contribute to its prominence along the coastal landscape.
