Concordant coastline
Discordant coastline
Joints and faults
Areas of weakness in the rock that allow for erosion by the sea
Swanage Bay between Ballard Point and Durlston Head (both headlands)
Lulworth Cove and Stair Hole, Dorset
The bands of softer rock are eroded faster, causing bays to develop, while bands of harder rock erode more slowly, creating headlands
The more there are, the faster the headland will erode
Bands of rock are parallel to the coastline
May be a vertical crack that develops into a cave
Bands of rock meet the coast at an angle, exposing the different strata to the sea
Coves are formed where the sea erodes and breaks through into a layer of softer rock behind
Formed through the movement of rock through geological processes including uplift and folding
