194 | A flat point of land forming one of the principal land marks in the Firth of Clyde. On its east side is a Light House 55 feet high which shews a revolving light every minute. The point is very rocky, being composed of the old red Sandstone lying nearly horizontal, but at the west end of the point is an extensive vein of limestone, which was formerly, but is not now, wrought. The Kiln which was used for burning the limestone still stands on the point. |
