Upheaval and Subsidence

Denudation of older stratified rock (remain horizontal and undisturbed): Nos inclusive Beds slowly raised—cliffs form at successive heights: No 10 and 8 Entire region submerged Country buried under sand, gravel, and erratic blocks Re-emergence slow and gradual—ridges and terraces are interruptions Falls originate at Queenstown—uppermost limestone and shale exposed: No 7 and 8
