Holy Island Group
The Holy Island Group is a sequence of metasedimentary rocks of Cambro-Ordovician (Furongian to Tremadocian) age found in northern and western Anglesey and the adjacent Holy Island in North Wales. It comprises four formations; a lower South Stack Formation, an overlying Holyhead Formation, a succeeding Rhoscolyn Formation and an uppermost New Harbour Formation. The South Stack Formation outcrops on Holy Island, between Holyhead and South Stack and at Rhoscolyn, and also inland on Anglesey itself between Mynydd Mechell and Carreglefn. The Holyhead and Rhoscolyn formations are restricted to the Holyhead Mountain and Rhoscolyn areas of Holy  Island. The New Harbour Formation, which previously enjoyed 'Group' status, is some 2km thick and conformably overlies the Rhoscolyn Formation. It extends across much of northern and western Anglesey and Holy Island. Further reading. Campbell,S., Wood,M. and Windley,B.
