The height of the eye in the observations of 1828 was 



To account for the great difference in the two observed de- 

 pressions of Pickington Ridge, it is to be remarked that in 

 1828 the excessive haziness, and again, in the following year, 

 the light mists skirting the dense rain in that direction, ren- 

 dered the observations very uncertain. 



The signal on Bakestone Edge is a grit tower placed close 

 to the east side of, and not much above the level of the coal 

 road formed of the same materials. Viewed from the greatly 

 superior height of Shunnor Fell, the western side of the roacl, 

 in favourable circumstances of light and shade excepted, would 

 certainly be mistaken for the base of the signal. This source 

 of uncertainty, added to those just mentioned, may possibly 

 have led to the important discrepancies which the observa- 

 tions present. 



In both cases it is singular that the mean differences of 

 level come out within a foot of the truth.
