| Description: | Girnal Craig beside Duddingston Loch, Holyrood Park, Edinburgh, Midlothian. Looking east-south-east from the Queen's Drive. This photograph shows trap featuring in sills and lava flows gently dipping to the left. Loch Craig, the crag to the left of the road, is a basalt lava flow. Girnal Craig, the crag between the road and the loch, is a sill of Dunsapie-type olivine basalt (macroporphyritic, with phenocrysts of plagioclase, augite and olivine). Duddingston Church, at the western end of Duddingston Village, can just be seen on the far left of the photograph. |
