The cliff face is eroded by hydraulic action, which over time forms a cave. The back and roof of the cave is then eroded until it breaks through the headland forming an arch. Further erosion on the arch causes it to collapse, thus forming the stack. More erosion on the stack will cause it to form a stump.
