Limestone Pavement

Details

Above Malham Cove visitors can traverse this unusal feature consisting of clints and grykes. During the last glacial period the movement of ice stripped the limestone of soil and vegetation. Since this time rock has been weathered and eroded largely by the process of corosion.
