See also: Geology of the British Isles

[edit]

The See Also section had a link to "Geology of the British Isles". However, no such page exists, except as a redirect to "British Isles#Geology", which in turn doesn't actually have a geology section (just a geography one).

I've therefore changed the See Also link to Geology of Great Britain and British Isles#Geography Wardog (talk) 09:06, 13 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am no geologist, so I am leaving it to those who are better qualified than me. However I suggest that some connection needs to be made between this article and Haffield Breccia article. It either needs to be mentioned as a sub-topic or the other article needs to be merged into this one with a mention of the names so that search engines can find them. -- PBS (talk) 13:00, 28 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not just Britain

[edit]

The way this article is written you get the impression that New Red Sandstone is a rock than only exists in Britain. Of course, that's not the case. You can find it in many places in Europe and the US. Shouldn't the editors expand it or, at least, mention that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.151.228.154 (talk) 19:32, 25 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@User talk:79.151.228.154 - you are an editor - if you have referenced material on the subject, any subject for that matter, you can add it! Geopersona (talk) 07:02, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I'd add that, though there will be sandstones of this sort of age in various parts of Europe and America, none to my knowledge are known as New Red Sandstone. That doesn't stop links from being being made in this article to them if they provide useful context for the British 'NRS'. Geopersona (talk) 07:13, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
