Sill exposed on Darn Bay cliff The sill runs from half way up the left of the frame to the top of the cliff on the right in a very flattened S curve. Samples taken on 22 Dec 21 were consistent with lava. If this is an offshoot of the dyke shown on the BGS overlay about 100m to the left (W), then it is a 'North Britain Siluro-devonian Calc-alkaline Dyke Suite - Microgranite'. The rest of the cliffs are Gourdon conglomerate with interbedded sandstone layers.
