The feldspar in this sandstone
The basal conglomerate of the Portungrie has large hidden
fragments up to one foot across. They are once rounded, and
consist of a dense red igneous rock (=? granite) and quartzites.
These must be of Archeogrian age. See Panormes's descrip-
tion of it.
It seems probable that the Devon sea lapped against this
ridge of Portungrie land.
