A' Chàbag

Headland

What is recorded here

A' Chàbag is shown as a headland on the public map of Na h-Eileanan Siar. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
A’ Chàbag is a headland composed primarily of Lewisian gneiss, some of the oldest rock formations in Scotland, dating back approximately 2.7 to 3 billion years. These metamorphic rocks formed deep within the Earth's crust through intense heat and pressure, and were later exposed by erosion, making the headland notable for its ancient geological history.
