Red Rock in Red Haven

The strikingly red stack is of considerable geological interest. The rock was formed by sand and gravel pouring into a hole at the top of a cave, eventually filling the cave and becoming lithified. Over millions of years the original rock containing the cave was eroded away, leaving the infill standing proud.
