they agree with the higher
beds of the Skiddaw slate
series as these are seen near
the junction with the suc-
ceeding green slates and por-
phyries of the Lake-district
proper.
South-east from Mickle Aw
Fell, another hill of greater
elevation is seen. This, named
Cuns Fell, has a very different
mineral nature from the ele-
vations which are composed
of Skiddaw slates. Cuns Fell
has also a diiferent outline
from Mickle Aw Fell. Its
summit is craggy ; and the
upper portion of its eastern
side presents prominent
bosses of rocks, which have
strewn this side and the
south-eastern slope with an
enormous quantity of debris.
The rock forming Cuns
Fell is a greenish crystalline
porphyry, in which crystals
of felspar are abundant ; it
has considerable affinity to
the green rocks of the lower
portion of the green slates
and porphyry series of the
Lake-district, especially as
these are seen in Barton Fell,
overlying the Skiddaw slates,
but in the latter locality the
green rocks are somewhat
less crystalline than in Cuns
FeU.
These green porphyries
form also the great mass of
the rounded hill called Cat-
terpellet, lying immediately
south-west of Cuns Fell, to
the north-east of which, like
the Skiddaw slates, they pass
under the Old Red Sand-
stone. On the south side of
Cuns Fell there is a rather
large and somewhat semicir-
cular valley known as Ousby

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
