Extract

The complex structure of the Lickey Hills, 7 miles south of Birmingham, has attracted the attention of geologists since the early part of last century, and interpretations of some details of their geology have been almost as numerous as the observers. The hills form part of the district recently remapped on the 6-inch scale by the Geological Survey.
