The larger picture (below) is a close-up of the conglomerate, seen in one of the sea-caves that pierce the headland; the pebbles are well-rounded, suggesting they have been transported some distance.
The caves were formed over 100,000 years ago when sea level was a few metres higher than today, and are above high tide.
