 Some that had been classed as 'formations' (or even in one case as a 'group') are now 'members'.Extending east from Woody Bay, the Lynton Formation underlies the village from which the sequence is named and continues in a thin strip of country as far east as the hamlet of Oare.There is a small inlier of the Lynton Slates at the foot of the Quantock scarp at Triscombe.
