| Description: | Loch Glencoul. Aird da Loch. Sutherland. The prominent scarp feature dipping to the right of the picture is formed by Cambrian Basal Quartzite and Pipe Rock which here lie unconformably on Lewisian gneiss. View looking north-east. The peaty flat above the scarp follows the dip of the Pipe Rock and the break in the slope marks the line of the Glencoul Thrust plane which brings the Lewisian gneiss to rest upon Cambrian strata. The ridge in the background shows a similar structure. |
