Note 477 — Chapter XXVIII · ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLES OF THE CARBONIFEROUS PUYS OF SCOTLAND
Reading edition
The succession of rocks in this interesting coast-section was briefly given by Dr. P. Neill in his translation of Daubuisson's Basalts of Saxony, Edinburgh, 1814, note f, p. 215. He was secretary of the Wernerian Society, and in his enumeration the Wernerian terminology is used without a hint that any single band in the whole series is of volcanic origin.
