Description: Girston, 3.2 km. south of Wick, Caithness. Fault breccia in the Girston Fault. The Girston Fault runs in a north-westerly direction south of the big stack seen in C01632 and enters the cliff obliquely forming a great smash. The rocks to the right of the fault, the Hillhead Red Bed Subgroup are on the downthrow side of the fault. The Helman Head Formation on up-throw side do not come into the photograph.
