Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Geological Survey, England and Wales: The Geology of the Oolitic and Liassic Rocks to the North and West of Malton Explanation of the Quarter Sheet 96 S. E. Of the One Inch Geological Survey Map of England and Wales
The most elevated areas are the Moors in the north-west corner, which exceed feet in height while the level of the Derwent, where it leaves the map a little south of Malton, is not more that 50 feet above the sea.
The rocks coming to the surface 1n this district mainly belong to the Upper, Middle and Lower Oolites; besides these a very small patch of Chalk, which forms the north-west corner of the Yorkshire Wolds, enters the map on the eastern side, and the Liassic rocks are found in the south-west corner.
