Lattice Windows sea arches and Barafundle Bay

13 Jul 2020 1 2 366
Broad Haven (south) to Stackpole Head Viewed from just north of Stackpole Head, the narrow sea arches of 'Lattice Windows' form the headland at the south side of Barafundle Bay. In contrast to the gentle southerly dip of the Carboniferous Limestone at Stackpole Head, fold structures have resulted in an increasingly steep northerly dip at Lattice Windows.

Green Bridge of Wales

Pembrokeshire Coast Path from St Govans to the Green Bridge of Wales The classic view of the Green Bridge of Wales sea arch, formed in the upper part of the Dinantian age Carboniferous Limestone Series. The small isolated sea stack to the right is probably the remnant pillar of a former sea arch, now collapsed, which joined on to the main arch pillar. The flat landform topography represents the '200 foot platform' - a Tertiary age marine erosion surface.

Devil's Bridge - Worm's Head

12 May 2015 1 2 409
Devil's Bridge is the sea-arch on Middle Head, on the Worm's Head peninsula at the western extremity of the Gower Peninsula, south Wales. The rocky summit just above the arch is the spectacular Outer Head. There are four distinct 'lumps' to Worm's Head - the long Inner Head, nearest Rhosili; Outer Head, the most distant seen here, and the lower Middle Head consisting of two separate summits, with the arch of Devil's Bridge between them.

Outer Head and Middle Head - Worm's Head peninsula

The Worm's Head peninsula lies at the western extremity of the Gower Peninsula, south Wales. It is connected to the main part of the Gower at Rhosili by a rocky causeway which is normally only uncovered two-and-a-half hours either side of low tide. There are four distinct 'lumps' to Worm's Head - the long Inner Head, nearest Rhosili; the spectacular Outer Head, the most distant seen here, and the lower Middle Head consisting of two separate summits, with the arch of Devil's Bridge between them. This view is from the top of Inner Head.

Molk Hole arch

Molk Hole is an intriguing irregularly-shaped inlet at the north end of Selwicks Bay, Flamborough. A fascinating area of Chalk cliffs, sea caves and arches, hollowed out along fault and fracture zones in part of the Howardian Hills-Flamborough Fault Belt. A lovely place to explore at low tide.
