Seatown and Golden Cap

Seatown and Golden Cap
View towards Golden Cap from Seatown, Dorset.

The pale yellow scar in the foreground is probably the Down Cliff Sands (Middle Lias, Lower Jurassic) and is a back scar of the extensive landslipped area to the left mainly in the Lower Lias shales (Eype Clay and Green Ammonite Beds).

Golden Cap exposes the Lower and Middle Lias sequence, overlain unconformably at the top by the yellow Upper Greensand (Cretaceous).
