Description: Oblique aerial view of the south end of the island of Lismore. Argyll and Bute. Along the coast is the Main Rock Platform, a Quaternary shore line and cliff. The rocks belong to the Lismore Limestone Formation of the Blair Atholl Subgroup of the Dalradian Supergroup (Precambrian). They are a thick sequence of blue-grey flaggy limestones that repeatedly pass through a series of transitional beds into subordinate black slates. The whole island is crossed by a series of north-west - south-east trending Tertiary dykes derived from the Mull central igneous complex.
