    The Glencoul Thurst is part of the The Moine Thrust Belt / Zone which is a linear tectonic feature that runs from Loch Eriboll on the north coast, for 190 kilometres (120 mi) south-west to the Sleat peninsula on the Isle of Skye.

    It's recognised as being a key geological site, the study of which substantially added to the development of geological sciences through history.
