"Magnesian Limestone is some of the oldest limestone formed and as a consequence is heavily faulted. ".

This is wrong on two counts:

1. Most limestone in the UK is Carboniferous, and some is much older. Magnesian limestone is Permian and hence younger.

2. The amount of faulting does not depend on the age, but on forces exerted on the rock. Some of the oldest rock in the world are NOT faulted as they exist in stable cratons.
