Summary

The western Hanging Rock. A mass of coarse pyroclastic breccia is juxtaposed against Weaklaw Tuffs at the base of the cliff and bedded Marine Villa Tuffs above by a reverse fault trending parallel to the cliff and dipping towards the camera at 40 to 50 degrees. The cliffs here are crumbly and inaccessible but the higher beds can be seen at the Smuggler’s Caves, some 50 m to the west.
