Not far from what I have taken provisionally as the northern boundary of the dyke region, two dykes occur which have been mapped from the head of Loch Goil by Arrochar across Lochs Lomond and Katrine by Ben Ledi to Glen Artney, whence they strike into the Old Red Sandstone of Strathmore, and run on to the Tay near Perth--a total distance of about 60 miles. If the dyke which continues in the same line on the other side of the estuary of the Tay beyond Newburgh, is a prolongation of one of these, then its entire length exceeds 70 miles. A few miles further south, one of a group of dykes can be followed from the heart of Dumbartonshire by Callander across the Braes of Doune to Auchterarder--a distance of 47 miles, with an average breadth of more than 100 feet. In the district between the Forth and Clyde a number of long parallel dykes can be traced for many miles across hill and plain, and through the coal-fields. One of these is continuous for 25 miles from the heart of Linlithgowshire into Lanarkshire. Still longer is the dyke which runs from the Firth of Forth at Grangemouth westward to the Clyde, opposite Greenock--a distance of about 36 miles. Coming southward, we encounter a striking series of single dykes on the uplands between the counties of Lanark and Ayr, whence they strike into the Silurian hills of the southern counties. One of these runs across the crest of the Haughshaw Hills, and can be followed for some 30 miles. But if, as is probable, it is prolonged in one of the dykes that traverse the moorlands of the north of Ayrshire and south of Renfrewshire to the Clyde, its actual length must be at least twice that distance. The great Moffat and Eskdale dyke strikes for more than 50 miles across the South of Scotland and North of England. The Hawick and Cheviot dyke runs for 26 miles in Scotland and for 32 miles in Northumberland.
