Gob na h-Àirde 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.
Gob na h-Àirde is a sea cliff or coastal rock feature located in the Outer Hebrides, likely composed of Lewisian gneiss, some of the oldest rocks in the UK, dating back over 2,700 million years. These metamorphic rocks formed deep within the Earth's crust through intense heat and pressure, and are notable for their durability and role in the ancient geological history of the region.
