Sidmouth cliffs

I think this part of the cliff is largely composed of relatively hard Otter Sandstone, but someone may be able to put me right on this. Other parts of the cliffs are made up of Otter mudstone and are far more likely to collapse.

Mit Steinzusammensetzungen kann ich Dir leider nicht helfen. Aber der Weg an den Klippen ist herrlcih. Sicher auch be Sturm... :-)

A magnificent coastal road and beautiful as you can see the rock layers.
Such layers in different types can also be seen particularly well on the island of Tenerifa:

I love the strong diagonals in your composition, Amelia. This cliff is very spectacular, but not as spectacular as the cliffs of St Andrews. All the best, Joe
