Abstract
This paper provides field and petrographic evidence believed by the authors to indicate that the Great Glen, over a lateral distance of some 40 miles between Fort William and Foyers, is flanked on the south-east by a broad crush-belt characterized by intense cataclasis and localized mylonitization. Most of the detailed evidence has not previously been published.Keywords
