Gneiss erratic on Bay of Stoer Formation at Sgèir na Tràghad 1
Alternating sandstones and softer siltstones/mudstones in the Bay of Stoer Formation (1200 Ma) have eroded differentially to form a series of narrow inlets at Sgèir na Tràghad, near Clachtoll. An erratic boulder of Lewisian Gneiss is perched on the outcrop of one of the sandstones.
