What is recorded here
Worm Stones is a coastal rock feature composed of Carboniferous limestone, formed around 340–320 million years ago through the accumulation of marine sediments. It is notable for its distinctive worm-like weathering patterns, which are the result of differential erosion and biological activity over time.
