Summary

Description
English: Quartzite outcrop The cream-coloured, translucent rock outcrops with a very bedded appearance are of the Eriboll Sandstone. These Lower Palaeozoic rocks are exposed in a complex structure known as the Ord Window, formed by folding, faulting and thrusting. The Ord Window shows the most southerly exposures of these rocks which can be found all the way to the North coast of Sutherland.
