Pembrokeshire Coast Path from St Govans to the Green Bridge of Wales The classic view of the Green Bridge of Wales sea arch, formed in the upper part of the Dinantian age Carboniferous Limestone Series. The small isolated sea stack to the right is probably the remnant pillar of a former sea arch, now collapsed, which joined on to the main arch pillar. The flat landform topography represents the '200 foot platform' - a Tertiary age marine erosion surface.

Looking back south eastwards to the Torridonian Sandstone cliffs and the Old Man of Stoer sea stack from the Point of Stoer. Stoer peninsula, NW Scotland.

The Old Man of Stoer is a sea stack of Torridonian Sandstone on the Stoer peninsula, NW Scotland. The mountains of Harris in the Outer Hebrides are just visible on the sky line at the upper left.

A southerly view from Port Mòr looking towards Oban. The flat area between the woodland and the shore is a raised beach, with the old (Pleistocene) cliff line behind, comprised of Devonian conglomerates. The prominent rock just right of centre is a remnant 'fossil' sea stack.

The Old Man of Stoer is a splendid sea stack comprised of sandstones of the Stoer Group (Late Precambrian). They are similar to the unconformably overlying Torridonian sandstones but predate them by around 200 million years. The coastline of the Isle of Lewis is just visible on the horizon.
