| Caption: | Oblique aerial view taken from above Friarton of Kinnoull Hill and the River Tay. Perthshire. |
| Description: | On Kinnoull Hill basic pyroxene-andesites form the crags while below is an acid volcanic conglomerate in a thick sequence, the latter is well exposed at the foot of the slopes while higher up, the conglomerates and the overlying lavas are intercalated. Note the building of the M85 motorway. Lower Devonian lavas form the south-facing scarp of Kinnoul Hill which overlooks low ground occupied by superficial deposits filling the buried channel of the River Tay. |
