(Gristhorpe Bay) - 1994

At the centre of Gristhope bay, the Cornbash and Osgodby formations can be seen, a small sequence of Scalby formation siltstones and Oxford Clay formation outcrop. Walking north, exposures of the Scarborough formation can be examined in the cliffs.

At Horse Shoe Rocks, north of Gristhope Bay, the Yons Nab beds run across the foreshore with calcareous sandstone and oolitic limestone can be seen at very low tides. North still, towards and near Yons Nab, the silts of the Helwath Beck Member rest on caronaceous shale and below this, the Gristhorpe Plant bed can be seen.
