Description: | Kincraig, 2 km. west of Elie, Fifeshire. Raised beach platforms of late-glacial age cut in the tuffs and agglomerates of the volcanic Kincraig neck. At the western end of Kincraig hill three benches cut into the agglomerate at about 11.5, 22 and 24.5 metres O.D. are believed to mark short periods of stillstand during the withdrawal of the late-glacial sea. |
