Why this matters
Thwaitehill Bay features a stretch of coastal rock formations primarily composed of Carboniferous limestone, around 300 to 360 million years old. These rocks were formed from ancient marine sediments and are notable for their erosion patterns and contribution to the characteristic landscape of the Furness area.
