Paramoudras flint column (sassnitzer Blumentopf Spalte) and a flint circle. Found below Beeston Bump Cliffs on the sandy beach. The same process that formed the paramoudras giant flint column also creates the circle as they are part of the same feature. What geology process can cause a circle and a column? Is it the same forces that created the rock lines and attached circles found beside and on beaches in the Islands of Malta? http://www.geulogy.com/introdis-beestonbump.html
