Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 May 2009
Extract
The epidiorite with which this note is concerned is exposed in a small overgrown quarry 50 yards north of St. Catherine’s old Chapel, Loch Fyne. The rock is soft and is easy to cut, and it is said that some was used in the building of Inveraray Castle.
