They lie between 1,250 and 2,000 O.D., chiefly around 1,500‐1,750 O.D. Well‐marked moraines, both lateral and transverse, are present, as well as typical hummocky morainic topography. Some of the glaciers issued from typical corries, and there are transitions from these to long, slightly recessed scars, likewise developed in the basal Millstone Grits. The corrieglaciation is regarded as later than the main Dales and Edenside glaciation' and may be contemporaneous with a recently‐discovered solifluction deposit on the Lunds to the south, in the Upper Ure Valley, and with outwash fans in Ravenstonedale at the foot of the Howgil
