What is recorded here
Aileodair is a sea cliff or coastal rock feature located within the Na h-Eileanan Siar archipelago, likely composed of Lewisian gneiss, some of the oldest rocks in the British Isles, dating back over 2.7 billion years. These rocks formed through high-grade metamorphism of ancient igneous and sedimentary rocks and are notable for their durability and significance in understanding early Earth crustal processes.
