Maer Down cliff convergence 2

Maer Down cliff convergence 2
Nearly vertically bedded sandstones of the Bude Formation (upper Carboniferous) at Maer Down cliff between Northcott Mouth and Bude, north Cornwall.

The Bude Formation consists mainly of deltaic and some turbidite sandstones interbedded with shales. The sandstones are relatively thick, compared with those in the underlying Crackington Formation, and as a result, more competent.
