Headland

What is recorded here

Rubha an Torra Bhig 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.
Rubha an Torra Bhig is a 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 columnar jointing, a result of the rapid cooling of lava flows, and its contribution to the dramatic coastal landscape of the Scottish Highlands.
