I can't begin to understand how something like this occurs in nature, but it is truly a gift from nature and breathtaking to behold. Another part of this beautiful world to which you've exposed us. Thanks Rick
Caused by a lava sheet cooling rapidly, as it cools it crack into the easiest geometric shape similar to patterns you may have seen in a mud flat or pond that has dried out in summertime? This causeway extends under the sea across to southwest Scotland too!
Geology and plate tectonics were my favourite subjects at school along with meteorology I was blessed with a fantastic and enthusiastic teacher, the science behind natural processes across the planet have always fascinated me as a result!
