The edge of Cronkley Fell for about a mile is girdled by a 

 series of steep basaltic cliffs, which extend from the neighbour- 

 hood of the White Force westward to the spur of the hill which 

 is opposite the termination of Falcon Glints. These are called 

 Cronkley Scars. They are from one to two hundred feet in 

 depth, as viewed from a distance the colour of mist or smoke- 

 giey, made up of an infinite number of depressions and pro- 

 jections, and though the greenstone rock is seldom to be seen 

 in masses of any considerable size, yet it is so much broken up 

 and breaks away so easily, as to render it a somewhat dangerous 

 exploit to climb amongst the steeper parts of them. Liule 

 streamlets trickle over the cliffs in several places, and the slope 

 at the bottom of the scar is thickly strewn with debris. The 

 following are the rarer plants of these scars, and of the open 

 space beneath them, and the adjacent river bank :
