Description: | Carle Fell Quarries (upper level) Upper Nidderdale. Looking N. The arm of the observer points at the base of a channel filled with soft sandstone with very abundant mudstone clasts, forming the undercut portion of the cliff. The thickly-bedded sandstone is the highest seen in the Scar House beds (Namurian, E2) hereabouts. The highest slopes are in weathered silty mudstones which underlie the Lower Follifoot Grit (not visible in photo). (See also close-up of this view.) |
