Kinsale's cliffs - a great seascape

Kinsale's cliffs - a great seascape
The "Old Head" of Kinsale was formed by differential erosion. An outcrop of hard sandstone is lodged between two layers of shale. The shale is eroded by marine action at a faster rate than the sandstone. The sandstone anticlines were much more resistant to erosion than the slate filled synclines. Thus over time the headland was formed rolling hills and green countryside

Thanks Cheryl. In Ireland, you'll find the gentle green hills inside the country, but the coast is often quite rugged.

Thanks Gillian. It's been a few years since my vacation in Ireland, but I still remember this beautiful coast well.
