Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Rockpool on the foreshore The small pool sits in a shallow bowl of Weybourne Crag, outcrops of which can be found on the foreshore. This section of beach is the only area in Norfolk where rock pools can be found.

Weybourne Crag dates from about 2 million years ago; it is composed of grey shelly sands that sit on top of a bed of flints, pebbles and shells. Often the crag and stone layers are cemented together by iron pan, giving the deposit a reddish colour. http://www.chesterfieldlodge.fsnet.co.uk/Geology/west%20runton-east%20runton.htm
