Millstone Edge panoramic, x2 vertical exaggeration
Eyam Moor is a good location to view the gritstone edges to the east of the Derwent Valley - from High Neb on Stanage Edge in the north down to Baslow Edge in the south.
All the main edges visible in this photo are comprised of a single gritstone unit - the Chatsworth Grit (a.k.a Rivelin Grit) in the 'Millstone Grit' group (Namurian).
Faulting has fractured the gritstone into discrete 'slabs' each with it's own elevation and dip direction. This accounts for the different sections of the edges - e.g. Higger Tor, Millstone Edge, Burbage Edge, etc.
This photo is comprised of 10 portrait-style photos joined together using Canon's 'Photostitch software, with some subsequent Photoshop cloning of the sky portion of the photo in order to give sufficient sky coverage along the length of the panorama.
The vertical scale has been exaggerated x 2 in order to bring out the various faulted sections of the gritstone edges.
The visible features L-R are:
Higger Tor, Millstone Edge (part-quarried), Millstone Edge (eastern part - upfaulted, with the gritstone tors of Over Owler Tor and Mother Cap Stone) and Burbage Edge, southern part.
