From the Choir Trip Record, October, 1890. — " Much of the 

 district through which the route lay (to Rievaulx) was, in the 

 days of its prosperity, in the possession of Rievaulx Abbey. In 

 fact the ancient territory of this great Religious House was 

 entered before the limit of the Parish of Ingleby was reached. 

 We were reminded of this on coming to Hagg Yat, just at the

 then signified a road has changed its meaning, and has come to

 shortly afterwards reached, was probably originally " Market 

 Road," that is, either the road to the Market, or the road upon

 whereby we describe the subject of this note, but the subject 

 appears to be worth a note. Those who have visited this part 

 of Cleveland will be aware that the south-eastern slopes 

 of the hill upon which Captain Cook's Monument stands, are 

 ornamented at about half their elevation by a belt due to the 

 superior hardness of the Margarita f us rocks as compared with 

 those immediately above and below. Below the belt the space is 

 occupied by the picturesque woods of Easby and Kildale. Just
