| Description: | Douglas Water, near Sandilands. Lanarkshire. Looking north-east. Sandilands esker. Cross-profile of the north-east trending esker. The esker is a long sinuous, narrow crested ridge that consists of sands and gravels laid down by glacial meltwater. Eskers formed at the retreating edge of a glacier or in a subglacial or englacial tunnel. Crookboat Farm is in the distance, Shields Burn in the foreground. |
