| Description: | Isle of Whithorn viewed looking south-east across Isle of Whithorn Bay towards the South Pier of the harbour. Geologically it is part of the extensive outcrop of Lower Palaeozoic strata which forms the Southern Uplands of Scotland. Greywackes are the dominant rock type in the area though a laminated siltstone of the Riccarton Group is exposed at Isle of Whithorn in an intensely deformed zone which also contains red mudstones. |
