Rubha nam Brathairean tracksite (south) : Scotland - Western Isles 17690 17705 33285 69002 78890 90836 91776 S of Rubha nam Brathairean (Rudha nam Braithairean = Brothers' Point), Trotternish peninsula, Isle of Skye; NG 526 625- Brothers’ Point 1 tracksite : Scotland - ? 90836 "BP1 is located on an inter-tidal platform east of the mouth of Lonfearn Burn and immediately adjacent to the large sill that forms the western edge of Sgeir Gharbh (57.5865 ̊ N, 6.1472 ̊ W; Fig 1B). This sill is referred to as the Burn Mouth Sill (John Hudson, personal communication). The walking path to Brothers’ Point passes along the cliff face to the south of the outcrop and a small stream branches off from Lonfearn Burn and flows along the western side of the platform. BP1 is regularly exposed during low tide, although it is frequently covered by seaweed."
- Brothers’ Point 3 tracksite : Scotland - ? 90836 "BP3 is located immediately west of the mouth of Lonfearn Burn into Port Earlish and south of (shoreward from) a large volcanic intrusion (57.5863 ̊N, 6.1494 ̊W; Fig 1B). The site is found among the large, wave-washed boulders of the coast. Since there was very little growth of seaweed and other coastal life on the exposed surfaces at the time of its discovery in 2017, BP3 likely was covered by boulders until soon before its discovery. Thus, in the future, BP3 may be particularly liable to becoming re-covered during storms."
- Brothers’ Point 2 tracksite : Scotland - ? 90886 "The site is located east of Port Earlish on the western side of Cumhag Fuar along the edge of a steep-sided, tidal inlet."
