Fold Analysis Gawthwaite Moor Saturday 10th June
Sixteen Members gathered at the Greyhound Inn, Grizebeck where our leader, Clive Boulter described procedures for measuring dip and strike. In appalling weather the party then set off for Gawthwaite Moor and after traversing some very boggy ground successfully took dip and strike and location measurements in three different areas. The wind and rain continued relentlessly so the party returned to the Greyhound Inn where Clive described how to plot the data onto stereographic projections, and carry out an interpretation, which every member succeeded in doing. The original intention had been to take very many more measurements to make a statistically viable recording that could be published in the Proceedings. The weather prevented this but everyone present had thoroughly enjoyed the day and a request was made that another day be arranged to complete the work. SB
