Guarsaigh Beag

Headland

What is recorded here

Guarsaigh Beag 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.
Guarsaigh Beag is a small headland composed of metamorphic rock, likely part of the Lewisian Gneiss complex, which dates back to the Precambrian era, around 2 to 3 billion years old. These ancient rocks formed through high-pressure and high-temperature deformation of earlier crustal material and are some of the oldest in Scotland, making the feature geologically significant.
