Uriconian
Granophyre is quite evident in the Ercall Quarries. This leads to suggest that the area was affected by (Uriconian) volcanism and associated events between 570-550 Ma including the intrusion of the Ercall Granophyre wikipedia.org

The Ercall
The relationship between the Ercall Granophyre and the Uriconian is also clearly evident as the Granophyre intrudes the Volcanic rocks and is therefore The Granophyre is dated at 560+/-1Ma and is thought to be related to the volcanic events in the area. wikipedia.org
