Abstract

This report describes work carried out by BGS as part of the wider Northumberland National Park Authority Land Characterisation Project. It incorporates an innovative method of categorising the geological contribution to the physical landscape and was undertaken in association with a geodiversity audit of the area. Data from the study was provided to the Authority for incorporation in its GIS. Further description of the landscape will be included in the reports arising from the Geodiversity study
