Description: Cliffs on coast, about 2.0 km. south-west of Oban, Argyllshire. Looking north-east. Cliff of Devonian (Lower Old Red Sandstone) conglomerate unconformable on Easdale Slate (Easdale Subgroup, Argyll Group, Dalradian Supergroup) which forms the low headland in front of the cliffs. The stretch of water on the left is the Sound of Kerrera. The basal conglomerate of the Lower Old Red Sandstone is commonly over 60 m. thick hereabouts and contains boulders of the underlying Dalradian rocks and of the penecontemporaneous Lorne Plateau Lavas, which crop out about 500 m. inland from the coast.
