Description: Oblique aerial view of Stoer Point. Typically red, reddish-brown Torridonian sandstone. Strike face of gently-dipping beds showing local faulting. Small point 0.3 km. south-west of Point of Stoer. Sutherland. The Torridonian comprises an assemblage of terrestrial sedimentary rocks laid down under fluviatile or shallow lacustrine conditions. Due to the great thicknesses and the palaeoenvironmental indicators it is thought that the rocks accumulated in fault-determined subsiding basins.
