Extract

The structure of the Jurassic area of north-east Leicestershire has been discussed by several writers, and markedly different opinions have been held. In the present paper fresh informationabout the variation of the Jurassic beds is brought forward to show the true position and orientation of the fold axes active in Jurassic times, and the history of the fold is discussed in more detail than has previously been attempted.
