again ascends on to the Ist Lime, in which it is deepiv cut 

 (page 68) up to Monyash, where it approaches the hasset 

 of the 1st Toadstone ; hut turning to the NW, it keeps in 

 the 1st Lime till near the branching of the Taddington and 

 Flags; Koads, where it crosses the 1st Toadstone basset, and 

 proceeds in the 2nd Lime, till opposite the Wells in Flagg 

 Village, where it crosses the basset of the 2nd Toadstone, 

 and then branches in different excavati(M\s in the 3rd Lime 

 Rock, wherein the Vales terminate, but the water seldom 

 runs on the surface above Monvash. 



The li''ye. This most interesting River empties itself 

 into the Derwent at Great Rowsley, upon the Limestone 

 Shale as mentioned above, and on the south side of Had- 

 don-Hall crosses the great Bakewell Fault (see p. ?90, 

 Note), which brings up the 1st Lime, in which the V'ale is 

 excavated for a short distance, and then again in the Shale up 

 to Bakewell Town, where the Lime, rising rapidly NW, is 

 cut again, and at the Cotton-Mill the excavation enters the 

 1st Toadstone (page 242), and continues in it, until cross- 

 ing again the great Bakewell Fault, the Shale and Shale 

 Limestone are then excavated, up to Ashford and beyond, 

 when the 1st Lime is again cut through, the 1st Toadstone, 

 2nd Lime, and an Excavation made in the 2nd Toadstone, 

 at the west front of Fin Copt Hill (see page 33), which in 

 this respect, and its number of Strata, resembles Matlock 

 High-Tor, represented in Plate V^.* facing page 199. From 

 hence through Monsal Dale (page fiQ), the 2nd Toadstone 

 is in the bottom and west side of the Dale, and below the 

 mouth of Cressbrook Dale the Excavation ei>ters on the 3rd 

 Limestone, and continues the same through Miller's Dale 

 (pages 69 and 243), where the 3rd Lime is cut lhrf)ugh for 

 a i of a mile, and shows the 3rd Toadstone in the bottom 

 of the Dale. In Wye Wood in Wormhill, near Chce Tor, 

 the River crosses the basset of the 3rd Toadstone, and from 

 thence all the way to Mill Dale, near Buxton (page 69), 

 the Excavation is in the 4lh Lime Rock : in Mill Dale the 

 3rd Toadstone is again crossed with a N dip, and the Exca- 

 vation for about ^ of a mile is again in the 3rd Lin)e, to 

 the greatLimestone Fault t, near Mill-Dale Bridge at Buxton 

 Town's end (page 287) ; from whence turning W, the Ex- 

 cavation proceeds in Shale on the north side of the Baths., 

 and so continues to its sources near the Grand Ridge by the 

 Manchester, Macclesfield, and Leek Roads.
