Just a 5 minute walk from the roadside, this flagstone quarry is a world renowned locality for Devonian fossil fish .

Mudstones have a bit of a boring reputation. These outcrops near Perth are far from boring, with a host of impressive structural geology features.

One of my favourite outcrops for getting to grips with what faults and fractures look like at the hydrocarbon reservoir scale. There’s also impressive inversion structures that we focus on here..

This short walk to the top of Kinnoull hill is really worth it for the view over the Tay valley and the andesite lavas marking that this was the site of an ancient volcano

Ever wondered why faults often cross each other - this is predicted by Anderson’s model together with 3 types of faults; normal, reverse & strike-slip. Some examples are given here from Morayshire.

This outcrop of sandstone from the Triassic period (225 - 190 Ma) forms part of Burghead harbour wall and a few minutes walk from the car park next to the pictish fort visitor centre.

A short hop from the road at Cowie Shore on the Isle of Arran, these easily accessible sandstone outcrops of Permian age are host to spectacular networks of deformation bands.

What a fascinating history there is here at Boddin Point, Montrose, Scotland. In the 18th C an entrepreneur took advantage of the limestone outcrops here to site a limeworks to be able to extract lime for use on fields to boost crop yield.
