Description:Excerpt from The Geology of the and Kielder: Explanation of Quarter-Sheet 108 the S. W., New Series, Sheet 7 The area included in the Map described in the present Explanation lies along the north-western borders of Northumberland and Cumberland, and includes the upper waters of the River North Tyne and its tributaries. It was surveyed by Mr. C. T. Clough (with the exception of the Cumberland portion, about half a square mile in extent, which is the work of Mr. Hugh Miller, ) under the supervision of Mr. H. H. Howell. Almost the whole of the ground lies upon the lower members of the Carboniferous system. There can be little doubt that the Lewisbum and other coals of this region are the strati graphical equivalents of the "Scremerston beds" in the Carboniferous Limestone Series of the north-eastern portion of Northumberland. The determination of this point is the chief feature in the investigation of the district by the Geological Survey. The six-inch sheets of the Ordnance County Maps included in the area of Quarter-Sheet 108 S.W. one-inch, are, Cumberland Sheet 2; Northumberland, Sheets 33, 40, 48, 49, 57, 58, and the western borders of Sheets 34 and 41. The ground was surveyed geologically on the six-inch scale, and MS. copies of these sheets are kept in this office for consultation by the public. The fossils mentioned in this Memoir have been mainly determined by Messrs. Sharman and E. T. Newton, who have also revised all the fossil-lists here given.
