Angular unconformity at Horton-in-Ribblesdale
Originally uploaded for the Guesswhere UK group.

This is one of the classic British angular unconformities. Horizontally bedded Carboniferous Limestone unconformably overlying Silurian greywacke siltstones dipping at about 45°

This is at Foredale Quarry just south of Horton-in-Ribblesdale, North Yorkshire.
