Eegittle from the east
Eegittle from the east
The narrow peninsula of Eegittle is geologically very interesting because it is composed of a rather more sandy type of meta-sediment than elsewhere on the western Yell coast, and it allows for a good understanding of the complexities of the structural geology in the area. It is also shot through with a number of deformed white granite veins.
