Summary edit
| Description |
English: The Sea of Stones. Since the ice melted after the end of the last Ice Age, Scotland has been rising isostatically. These ridges mark successive coastlines, where the retreating sea has piled up, then abandoned, beaches of pebbles. Unfortunately part of the Sea of Stones has been destroyed by the construction of a rifle range, and much of it has been planted with conifers. |
