Summary

description
English: Figure 2 Section extending from the Highlands south-eastwards to the coast at Arbroath. After Lyell's Elements of Geology (1838, p.99). 1 = red marl or shale, 2 = red sandstone, 3 = conglomerate, 4 = grey paving stone, etc., a = newer deposits in horizontal beds. Most of the section comprises formations of the Lower Old Red Sandstone, but the horizontal beds at Arbroath belong to the unconformable Upper Old Red Sandstone, while the clay-slate at the NW end of the section is part of the Dalradian lying beyond the Highland Boundary Fault, not yet recognised in 1838.
