Location of Geological Feature
The newly opened courtyard in front of the Adam Smith Business School features Caithness Flagstones, containing Devonian fish remains including scales and bone fragments from lobe-finned fish (Dipnoans and Crossopterygians) and placoderms etc, and several coprolites. There's a fantastic partial fish on the section of paving closest to the road, probably Osteolepis.
