Description: Ael-y-Bryn, Capel Bangor. Looking NW. Inverted dips and local thrusting in the Devil's Bridge Formation. Alternating sharp-based 5 cm. sandstones (probably distal turbidites) and fracture cleaved shaley mudstones at the top of the Devil's Bridge Formation, showing dips of 40 - 70 degrees to the west. The beds young to the right of the picture, i.e. are inverted, and occur on the oversteepened east-facing limb of an anticline. A prominent 10 cm. sandstone, just to the left of the hammer is cut out by a thrust (dipping at 35 degrees to south-west), subparallel to the bedding and probably of small throw. The thrust runs from top right to bottom left diagonally across the picture in a narrow crush zone which now forms a hollow. Immediately to the right of the picture the thrust flattens out and becomes sub-horizontal.
