The area, enclosed within a line, and marked Stand, Crich Hill, is the elevated oblong dome of limestone. All the surrounding country is composed of millstone grit and sandstone.
The arrows on the boundary line of Crich Hill denote the direction of the dip of the limestone strata in nine positions measured and determined by Mr. Carr. The dip vanes from 20 to 50, the greatest inclination is on the south-east of the tower.
The arrows on the surrounding millstone escarpments mark the dip of those strata in a sufficient number of stations, to convey a general idea of the position of the mountain masses environing Crich Hill.[811]
