Cliffs at Brucehill

Image: © Lairich Rig Taken: 27 Oct 2017

The map shows a bunching a contour lines here (the cliffs), and a flat area in front. The flat area is a raised beach, and these cliffs were once sea-cliffs (Image / Image). From a distance, the rock face shown here is screened by trees (compare Image). Dripping water keeps the surface damp, creating a home for liverworts and ferns such as Royal Fern (see Image). See Image for a view in the opposite direction.
