Àird an Torrain

Àird an Torrain is shown as a headland on the public map of Highland. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.

Àird an Torrain is a sea cliff or coastal rock feature composed of metamorphic rocks, likely part of the Lewisian Gneiss complex, which dates back to the Precambrian era, over 2.5 billion years old. These ancient rocks formed through high-pressure and high-temperature deformation of earlier crustal material and are notable for their durability and role in the geological foundation of the Scottish Highlands.
