an isolated reproduction of North Wales, separated therefrom by a wide expanse 
of sea, the floor of which is underlaid by strata of more recent age than those of 
which the two mountainous range; are composed. The whole is surrounded by 
rocks of Carboniferous age, except that portion lying between Black Comb (of 
Skiddaw age) and St. Bees Head.
