Why this matters

The sea cliffs at Walton Bay in North Somerset consist mainly of Blue Lias Formation, a Jurassic-age limestone and shale, approximately 190 million years old. These cliffs are notable for their accessibility and the presence of well-preserved marine fossils, making them a popular site for amateur and professional geologists.
