Cnoc an Fhreiceadain

Cnoc an Fhreiceadain (Hill of Watching or Watch Hill) is a coastal mountain peak in northern Scotland.

It is 307 metres (1,007 ft) high[1] with commanding views along the north coast of Scotland to Orkney in the east to Durness and Arkle in the West.

Cnoc an Fhreiceadain is an Old Red Sandstone conglomerate, and dates from the Paleozoic era, around 400 million years ago.
