THE GIANTS CAUSEWAY: GENERAL VIEW.
This, celebrated spot is part of the same basaltic formation which in Scotland crops up at Staffa, but here assumes a different landscape character. The name is loosely given to about three miles and a half of coast and cliff, along which the basaltic columns assume various characteristic forms known as the Giant's Organ, Giant's Theatre, Giant's Loom, The Chimneys, etc. .These are striking in character and grand in scale, the Theatre being perhaps the finest natural amphitheatre in the world. There are also several sea-caverns in the precipitous cliffs, some of them of vast size and with fine echoes. The Causeway proper is a platform or mole separating Port Ganniay from Port Noffer, here shown from the westward side, and nearer at hand in the next view.
