Strath Dionard,(SOLD)

That the broad flat floored valley of Strath Dionard, bleak and forbidding, was once occupied by a major valley glacier is supported by many forms of evidence. The shape of the valley itself with its steep sides of truncated spurs and flat bottom all attest to glacial erosion. The presence of transverse recessional moraines and by long, linear drainage channels which may represent lateral ice margin positions, cut into bed rock along the margins of the strath and on the low ground north of the Kyle of Durness. Quaternary sediment cover, glacial and fluvioglacial is present and thickest over the eastern flank of Strath Dionard .
