Have a little read: ... How does beach sediment vary along the coast between Lochranza and Catacol? Hypothesis For my investigation we studied a 550m stretch of beach between Lochranza and Catacol on the Isle of Arran, as shown on the OS map (page 2). On this beach it consisted of many granite and phylite pebbles. Phylite could have ended up here from erosion from the cliffs by abrasion. The granite however is not located in this area of the island and could only be transported by the River Eason, joining the River Charmadale and also the River Catacol. I think more likely though that the granite, which ended up on the beach we are studying, came from the River Catacol. When the granite is deposited at the river mouth they are all different sizes and we say that they are 'unsorted'. This granite could have been transported round to the location where we studied by Longshore
