Cocklawburn Beach
A ‘longish’ exposure at Cocklawburn beach, which is within the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding natural Beauty and just 5 miles south of Berwick-upon-Tweed. One feature of this beach is the large patch of limestone pavement whose surface is covered in grooves, giving it the appearance of being made up from rectangular slabs. This type of rock is rare and geologists continue to debate if it formed this way or whether the pattern is a result of later erosion.
