passing from Weather fell to the eastern end of Cam fell, the in- 
terval between the main and underset limestones, (only forty feet 
in Weather fell), continually diminishes ; the underset limestone, which 
is fifty feet thick over Wensleydale, becomes much thinner, and finally 
the two rocks appear united in one crinoidal limestone in the southern 
front of Cam fell, over a great mass of flagstones and plates ; detached 
masses of the millstone grit series lie over this limestone in W eatlier fell 
and Dod fell). Crossing the rather obscure country of plates, grits, 
and limestones, between Cam fell and Ribble head, we find the same 
series in Ingleborough, composed in like manner, of about five hun- 
dred feet of plates and laminated grits, with limestones and plates 
at the bottom ; on this rests crinoidal limestone rock, thirty feet thick, 
covered by alternating grits and plates; and the whole is crowned by 
a pebbly millstone grit. This, which we shall in future designate as the 
Ingleborough grit, is the same as that already noticed above Kettlewell 
and in Nidderdale. In Penyghent also the main limestone occurs under 
a cover of Ingleborough grit, inclosed in shales, and flagstones with 
coal. There is no underset limestone. 
The whole series, above five hundred feet thick, was thus ob- 
served, (1833).
