Description: Craigy Hill, Garleton Hills. East Lothian. A crag and tail. The crag is a trachyte lava, the tail is moulded basalt lavas with a thin cover of boulder clay, orientation west-south-west - east-north-east; another tail occurs in the left foreground. A crag and tail is a glacial erosion feature, it is an elongate hill or ridge with a steep face or knob which might be ice-smoothed or resistant rock which obstructed the movement of a glacier. The lee end or tail is a tapered streamlined gentle slope of weaker rock which was protected by the crag.
