Height of Ingleton Church Tower above the Greeta. 

 A base line having been marked out on a gentle and suffi- 

 cientlv even slope near the east bank of the Kingsdale stream, 

 (just above Thornton bridge,) a straight deal rod, about 

 % inches square and 6 feet long, was driven perpendicularly 

 into the ground at each end of the base. The distance be- 

 tween the rods appeared to be 898 feet 4- inches, or 898 feet 

 9 inches, according as it was measured in lengths of 50 or of 

 60 feet each of an excellent 66 feet tape. Corrected for the 

 error of the tape, which had been compared, under the usual 

 degree of tension, with an eight-feet levelling staff, the base 

 line would be 898 feet 3 inches, or if we reject the fraction on 

 account of some slight inequalities in the ground, 898 feet.
