Description: About 100 yd. W. of Collinwell. Looking NE. View of the Chalk-basalt scarp near Belfast. In the foreground are the limeworks at Collinwell situated on the Chalk outcrop. In the middle distance can be seen the chimney of the Collin Glen brickworks sited on the Keuper Marl. Beyond this is the prominent pit in the Chalk and above it the Black Mountain Quarry in the Lower Basalts. In the distance towards the right Belfast lies in the Lagan Valley eroded in comparatively soft Triassic rocks.
