What is recorded here
White Napes is a sea cliff composed primarily of Carboniferous limestone, formed around 340 to 320 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. The cliff is notable for its striking white appearance, which results from the high calcite content of the limestone and its exposure through coastal erosion.
