Nolton Haven channel sandstones 3


Nolton Haven to Newgale
The small Nolton-Newgale coalfield is separated by faulting from the main Pembrokeshire coalfield. It lies mostly within Pennant Sandstone Formation of the Upper Coal Measures rocks.
The cliffs of Nolton Haven expose predominantly deltaic channel sandstones, often with highly erosive bases with coarse, rip-up, channel-lag deposits. The general dip is around 20° to the south-west.
This photo shows planar laminated sandstones with an erosive base resting on the underlying sandstone unit. Planar laminated sandstones in this setting often indicate high energy, fast current flow.
The photo is approx. 60 cm from top to bottom.
