Note 414 — Chapter XXIV · CARBONIFEROUS VOLCANIC PLATEAUX OF SCOTLAND

This plateau is represented in Sheets 12, 21, 29, 30, 31 and 39 of the Geological Survey, and is described in the accompanying Memoirs as far as published. The eastern part of the Campsie Hills was surveyed by Mr. B. N. Peach, the western part by Mr. R. L. Jack, who also mapped the rest of the plateau to the Clyde, and a portion of the high ground of Renfrewshire and Ayrshire; the rest of the area, south to Ardrossan, was surveyed by myself. The tract from Stewarton to Strathavon was surveyed by Mr. James Geikie, the Cumbraes and Bute by Mr. W. Gunn, and southern Cantyre by Mr. R. G. Symes. The Campsie Hills have been partly described by Mr. John Young in the first volume of the Transactions of the Glasgow Geological Society. The occurrence of plants in the tuffs of the east coast of Arran was discovered by Mr. E. Wunsch. The Campbeltown igneous rocks were described by J. Nicol, Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc. viii. (1852), p. 406. See also J. Bryce's Arran and Clydesdale.
