The Pennines, often called the backbone of England, constitute an upland area of natural beauty much frequented by walkers and tourists. Industrial conurbations on the flanks of the Pennines owe their origins to coalfields that fuelled the industrial development of the region. Coal mining remains an important industry, and the regions fuorspar, baryte and limestone are also major contributors to the UK economy. This book gives a comprehensive account of the geology of the region, covering pre-Carboniferious rocks, Carboniferous, Dinantian, Namurian, Westphalian, Permian and Triassic, Neogene and Quaternary, the structure of the region, and the relationship between geology and man in the region. Aimed at the student and amateur geologist, this book will also provide an overview of the geology of the area for the professional geologist, planner or civil engineer. A fold-out geological map of the area is included.
