BAKER S NORTH YORKSHIRE. 



from the arenaceous terrace break through the hmestone, and 

 upon the slope of the ridge towards the north the two villages 

 are situated. Wath Wood, Slingsby Wood, Coneysthorpe 

 Wood, and Hildenley Wood, are all upon the escarpment of this 

 ridge towards the south ; and Terrington Carr, well known as a 

 botanical locality, is a small heathery swamp, by the side of the 

 Slingsby stream, in the trough between the two terraces. The 

 town of Malton is situated upon the slope towards the Vale of 

 Pickering of the calcareous ridge, upon the north bank of the 

 Derwent. This Howardian tract furnishes a great variety of 

 situation, and although it has none of the more decidedly 

 Montane plants, yet we obtain here as many of the rarer species as
