Fluvial cross beds of Devonian age at Pease Bay, Scotland. Note how some of the complete cross beds have been preserved, with topsets, foresets and downlap all seen on the sets to the left of the picture. This gives the original height of the aqueous dune. The beds to the right have been truncated by the upper erosion surface.
