    Tips

    September 9, 2024

    The geological subsoil of the Black Isle consists predominantly of Old Red Sandstone. But not here. In the south-eastern corner of the peninsula there is a band of conglomerate under the Kessock Bridge extending north to Munlochy Bay. Ord Hill is part of this material (conglomerate) and is exposed at this point.
