Bullslaughter Bay

Pembrokeshire Coast Path from St Govans to the Green Bridge of Wales

At Bullslaughter Bay, the Dinantian age Carboniferous Limestone Series has been eroded along a series of angular folds and fractures, forming a set of sea caves and sea stacks. The main structure is the Bullslaughter Bay syncline, the axis of which runs from near the caves in the centre of the photo, crossing the sandy beach towards the rocks on the right.

Some of the fractures are filled with orange-brown, angular brecciated sediment ('Collapse Breccia'), thought to be of Triassic age.
