This man was bullied his entire childhood, he was teased, mocked and laughed at every day in school. Now he has serious political power in Ireland! What did you think was going to happen?

In 1788, Hutton discovered almost vertical layers of sedimentary rock at Siccar Point. This allowed him to explain key geological processes like deposition, folding and erosion, which shape today's landscapes. View more geological photos via our archive: bgs.assetbank.app

The project was funded by the UK Government and utilised both BGS and Royal Navy bathymetry (depth), backscatter (seabed composition), ground-truth sampling (underwater video footage) and many other derived data layers to create the suite of bespoke geological outputs.
