512 MR. P. F. KENDALL ON A SYSTEM OF [Aug. 1902, 
200 yards wide: we accordingly find at each outlet a vast accumu- 
lation of gravelly débris. That at the end of the Randay-Mere 
segment has, with the Boulder-Ciay and other material thrown 
down directly by the ice, completely filled the old valley of West 
Beck, probably to a depth of 250 feet, and has compelled the stream 
to cut a new channel for itself at Scar Wood, in the form of a great 
rocky ravine nearly 200 feet deep. 
About Julian Park, near the Randay-Mere outfall, great quantities 
of boulders are found in the fields. The separate outlet of the 
Moss-Swang valley at the lateral escape is also strewn with large 
boulders.

We may now consider the conditions prevailing in Lake Eskdale 
during the formation of the Moss-Swang outtlow. The intake itself 
presents some features of interest. Like the Fen-Bogs intake, the 
last stages of cutting were through, or into, a hard bed of grit, which 
forms a conspicuous platform in front of the actual sill. Along the 
hillside to the west ward there is a very steep and strong scarp, prob- 
ably due to the ice thrusting forward and confining the inflowing 
waters against the hillside. 
Of beaches in Lake Eskdale I am unable to cite a clear example. 
At many places the hillsides are notched, but there is only one level at 
which the signs are at all widely prevalent: this is at about 560 or 
575 feet. I have observed scarping at approximately this elevation 
at the following localities :— 
Bramble Carr, near Danby Parsonage: about 560 feet. 
Scale Foot, near Castleton: 560 feet. 
Hornby House and Winsley Hill, Danby: above 575 feet. 
Foul Green, Commondale, just above the old mine-shaft, two scarps 
at 575 and 600 feet. 
At the same levels are two very pronounced terraces in the gravel-mass in 
Bellman Lane, Danby-Dale End, and along the hillside above Lealholm, 
especially near Hole-i’-th’-Ellers for a considerable distance, at about 575 feet. 
There are also remarkable benches of gravel at Stonegate at 560 and 575 feet 
respectively, to which more particular reference will be made later. 
These scarps, although in some instances clearly connected with 
outcrops of hard rock, are in others, as for example at Scale House 
and at Danby-Dale End, cut in gravel; and I think that they may be
