Edale & Kinder Scout Summit Print - Limited Edition of 15

Inspired by the English Peak District, a half day walk will take you to the summit of Kinder Scout to view the cities of Leeds, Sheffield and Manchester on a good day. Kinder Scout was the site of the Great mass trespass which was a response to over zealous land laws. The area in and around the Edale basin and Kinder Scout comprises rocks formed approximately 320 million years ago during the Carboniferous Period. During this time, Great Britain was located along the Earth’s equator and was subject to a warmer climate and fluctuations in sea level. Edale itself would have been situated within the Pennine Basin, a region surrounded by isolated upland areas that eroded slowly over time. This eroded material would have been deposited into the Pennine Basin, forming the sandstones and mudstones that comprise the Millstone Grit Group. During times of low sea level, thick sand beds accumulated as river deltas grew further out into the basin, whilst silts and muds were deposited into shallow seas within the basin at times of high sea level. Some deposits even record evidence of small, underwater gravity flows. ORIGINAL PRINT - Limited Edition of 15 hand crafted cyanotype prints.
