What is recorded here

Auliston Point 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.
Auliston Point is a coastal headland composed primarily of basalt, formed during the Paleogene period through volcanic activity associated with the North Atlantic Igneous Province. It is notable for its resistant rock formations that have withstood coastal erosion, contributing to the dramatic landscape of the Scottish Highlands.
