It is a Geological Conservation Review site because it contains an exposure of Oolite, which shows a very clear example of dip-and-fault structure. In addition it reveals Pleistocene 'plateaugravels' made up of flint, chert, limestone, coal, shales, sandstone and conglomerate, sometimes in a silty matrix, sometimes clast supported.[1] References1. ^English Nature citation sheet for the site (accessed 12 July 2006) {{SSSIs Avon geological}}{{England-SSSI-stub}} 4 : Sites of Special Scientific Interest in Avon|Sites of Special Scientific Interest notified in 1990|Geography of Bath, Somerset|Quarries in Somerset |
