| Description: | This excavation exposes a remarkable section of a patch of coal with its underclay resting evenly upon Carboniferous limestone which also in a brecciated form covers the eroded surface. This appears to be very difficult to explain but Dr. Marr thinks that it may be a portion of the Coal Measures forced into the limestone as a thrust plane during the movement producing the South Craven Fault. Added note: Limestone, N. Fault line, Precambrian slates, Line of N. fault. |
