| Description: | View across Findon Valley, from Cissbury Ring. Looking NW. The Second or Outer Chalk escarpment of the South Downs. Cissbury Hill in foreground, Church Hill in background on left and Black Patch Hill in distance near middle of view, are developed on the outcrop of Offaster pilula and Act.quadratus Zones of the Chalk. Their north (right-hand) slopes form part of a discontinuous escarpment which runs through the South Downs westward of the River Adur and dominates the vale opened in the less resistant chalk of the Marsupites Zone. The Findon Valley, following the dip-slope from right to left, is not clearly seen. It passes on the hither side of Church Hill above Findon village. |
