Stackpole Head from Mowingword Point

Broad Haven (south) to Stackpole Head

The cliffs of Stackpole Head consist of Carboniferous Limestone gently dipping south. There are sea caves and other solution features visible: the prominent bedding plane just below the cliff top displays palaeo-karst pot-hole-like features.

Caldey Island is on the centre skyline; Llanmadoc Hill and Rhosili Down on the Gower Peninsula can be seen in the far distance just above the headland.
