Cliffs of Moher
County Calre, Ireland. The cliffs consist mainly of beds of Namurian shale and sandstone, with the oldest rocks being found at the bottom of the cliffs. It is possible to see 300 million year-old river channels cutting through, forming unconformities at the base of the cliffs.
The cliffs rise 120 meters (394 ft) above the Atlantic Ocean at Hag's Head and reach their maximum height of 214 meters (702 ft)
