Brief geologic history of Hartland Quay, Devon

<p>The beds themselves were formed as part of the Crackington Formation during the mid to late Carboniferous (~325 Mya) and exhibit alternating sandstone and siltstone layers, typical of turbidite sequences, formed deep underwater when vast amounts of arenaceous sediment are suddenly moved downslope underwater, covering up the silt beds below.</p>
