Photograph Notes: Flint nodules such as seen here are called paramoudras, also known as pot stones. These large nodules originally had a central core filled with chalk. Once exposed, the soft chalk is quickly washed out by wave action, leaving a large hole. One can occasionally spot pot stones in gardens where they serve as nature-made flower pots - hence the term pot stone. The white chalk outcrop on the foreshore is only visible at low water. It is composed of calcium carbonate from the remains of microscopic marine organisms that once lived in a warm shallow sea which covered this area between 62 and 132 million years ago.
