Are there any faults or joints at flamborough head?
Flambrough Head is a chalk headland with sheer white cliffs. Without looking at a Geological Map of the area I can not tell you if there are any faults running through it (but it is likely) but the Chalk rock will be jointed. I believe there are stacks and caves associated with the headland and these are probably associated with the majour joints (perhaps faults).
