Cliffs
of Dunglass
The remains of an ancient volcanic plug with typical ‘crag and tail’ features left by glacial movement. The ‘crags’ on the north and east sides are formed by glaciers scouring the hard igneous rock, with the ‘tails’ on the south side formed by softer sediment on the leeward side of the crag. Columnar basalt forms, similar to those of the Giant's Causeway and Fingal's Cave are to be seen. |
