The Torbay Limestones are a group of headlands made up of limestone laid down around 400 million years ago - in a period appropriately called the Devonian.

The flat topped headlands support a mosaic of grassland, limestone heath, rock, cliff and scrub communities, noted for their exceptional floristic richness.
