A sculpture piece which highlights the layers of sands, gravels and clays that make up Hengistbury Head were formed around 65 million years ago beneath a warm tropical sea.
This was the beginning of a very unstable period. Movements in the earth’s crust created the Alps and in southern England the land surface was gently folded. Temperatures and sea levels fluctuated widely. Tropical seas gave way to warm lagoons and then extreme cold as a series of ice ages gripped the land.
This dramatic history is visible in the cliffs along Hengistbury Head.
