The new pit is veryslightly north of a line joining the Narborough massif with the north endof the Croft one, and rather nearer the former. The arrow-head indicates the position of the pit which contains the junction ofslate and syenite, near Enderby ; the village is on the larger outcrop, thequarries being near the middle of it. 26 PROF.
