LLANBADRIG - DINAS GYNFOR SSSI
A site of geological importance,
the cliffs here show the boundary between the ancient Precambrian rcks
and the later Ordovician sedimentary deposits about 470 Million years
ago. The jumble of Precambrian rocks are particularly impressive,
including huge fragments of diverse origin welded together under
intense pressures over the ages. There are various access points from
the coastal footpath and the tiny church at Ty'n-Llan with its Islamic
decoration provides an interesting diversion.
