Point of Ayre (Orkney)
:''There are also two similarly named points in the British Isles: Point of Ayre, Isle of Man and Point of Ayr, North Wales.''
Point of Ayre ( ) is a headland in the parish of Deerness, on the Eastern side of Orkney Mainland, off the northern coast of mainland Scotland. Overlooking the Copinsay Pass, it lies 4 miles (6 km) south of Mull Head, and around 10 miles from Kirkwall, the main town on the island.
At Point of Ayre is a seven-metre thick basalt lava flow. At its top surface are relict gas bubble holes now filled with carbonate. Lower down, the lava has weathered in an "onion-skin" or spheroidal pattern, which is an unusual feature in Orkney.
