Old Man of Storr, Skye (Ref 0033)
© Angus Johnston
The Storr is a rocky hill on the Trotternish peninsula
of the Isle of Skye. The hill presents a steep rocky eastern face
overlooking the Sound of Raasay, contrasting with gentler grassy slopes to
the west.
The area in front of the cliffs of The Storr is known as The Sanctuary.
This has a number of weirdly shaped rock pinnacles, the remains of ancient
volcanic plugs. One of the most famous of these is known as The Old Man of
Storr.
