Full Description

A dyke was noted at NA 99405 27513, running on a southwest to northeast alignment and apparent as fairly intermittent mossed over gneiss boulders of irregular size and shape. The dyke measured between 0.5m and 0.6m wide, 0.15m and 0.25m high, but it was for the most part no more than a stone scatter flush with the ground surface.
