Extract

In 1804, Lieutenant-Colonel Imrie communicated to the Royal Society of Edinburgh a paper entitled “A Description of the Strata which occur in ascending order from the Plains of Kincardineshire to the Summit of Mount Battoc, one of the most elevated points in the Eastern District of the Grampian Mountains.” He pointed out that, in a short stretch of six miles in the North Esk section, “we pass from the secondary horizontal strata of the newest formation to the vertical, contorted primary strata of the oldest date, and terminate with granite, the primitive rock in the conception of many geologists.”
