Caption: | River Garry, 0.8 km. west of Clunes, 2.6 km. west-north-west of Struan Station, Perthshire. Sill of porphyritic microgranodiorite (formerly called quartz-porphyry) in the Dalradian Grampian Group psammitic schists. |
Description: | River Garry, 0.8 km. west of Clunes, 2.6 km. west-north-west of Struan Station, Perthshire. Sill of porphyritic microgranodiorite (formerly called quartz-porphyry) in the Dalradian Grampian Group psammitic schists. The sill can be seen extending over the hillside to the prominent feature on the skyline. The sill is more resistant to erosion than the surrounding older psammitic schists and so forms a distinctive positive feature. |
