About this picture …

Dalradian metamorphic rocks at Imachar on the Isle of Arran in western Scotland. ‘Dalradian’ was coined in 1891 from Dál Riata (Dalriada), the ancient kingdom split across western Scotland and northern Ireland in the late 6th and early 7th centuries. Deep layers of sedimentary and volcanic stone have been folded by seismic upheaval, and sculpted by ice and the waters of the Kilbrannan Sound. The tongue of land in the distance is the Mull of Kintyre.
