Caption: | Cheddar, Cheddar Gorge. Looking N. |
Description: | Cheddar, Cheddar Gorge. Looking N. The vertical east wall of the gorge (right side) is a scarp slope, due to strong vertical jointing of the Carboniferous Limestone (Seminula Zone, and Dibunophyllum Zone in extreme top right-hand crag). The more gently sloping west wall is a dip-slope, locally steepened by breaking away of limestone along vertical jonts. |
