Abstract
The Cross Fell inlier consists mainly of Lower Palæozoic rocks and is situated on the eastern side of the Vale of Eden. It was first described in detail by Nicholson and Marr (1891) and has recently been the subject of a further study by Mr. F. W. Shotton (1935). The former authors considered the stratigraphy of the region, while Mr. Shotton has been concerned with the revision of the stratigraphy and the tectonics.
