Description: | Finnich Glen, near Finnich Toll by Killearn, Stirlingshire. Gorge cut in well-laminated sandstones belonging to the Stockiemuir Sandstone Formation, Stratheden Group, Upper Devonian age. The brick-red aeolian sandstones show alternations of cross-bedded (dune facies) and parallel-bedded (interdune facies) sandstone. Intercalations up to 5 metres thick of water-laid fine-grained sandstones and siltstones with ripple-lamination are also present but represent less than a quarter of the sequence. |
