3rd Gallery: Paleozoic Geology Sandeel Bay and Woarway Bay on east side of Hook Head, and Lumsdin's Bay on west side of Hook Head, SW Coast Co Wexford, Eire

Introduction
This is the third page which links to a gallery of diagrams and photographs that illustrate the geology of the Paleozoic rocks that outcrop on Hook Head in South West County Wexford. The photographs were taken by Christopher Kendall on a field trip lead by Peter Haughton and Ian Somerville of the University College of Dublin of Ireland. If you wish to read an introduction to the Geology of Hook Head click on the highlighted words to left.

The photographs occur in same order the outcrops of Hook Head were visited on this trip and the stops immediately below are from Sandeel Bay to Lumsdin's Bay.

Sandeel Bay on east side of Hook Head
Devonian Harry Lock Formation represents the sediments of braided stream fill that grades from conglomeratic fill at the base of channels to coarse and finer cross bedded sands. Some of the coarser fill is in channels incised into braided stream deposits in the form of bars and channels that are in turn interbedded locally with shale to siltstone overbank deposits!

Woarway Bay on east side of Hook Head
Carboniferous Porter's Gate Formation sandstones of the near shore beach to barrier setting that grades coarse to finer cross bedded sands and shales into carbonates. Some the carbonates are fossiliferous mudstones that are inter bedded locally with shale to siltstone of an offshore shelf setting. These sediments were subjected to wave sorting and rippling!

Lumsdin's Bay on west side of Hook Head
Carboniferous Porter's Gate Formation sandstones of the near shore beach to barrier setting that grades coarse to finer cross bedded sands and shales into carbonates. Some the carbonates are fossiliferous mudstones that are inter bedded locally with shale to siltstone of an offshore shelf setting. These sediments were subjected to wave sorting and rippling! This section shows evidence of faulting which causes the section to be repeated!
