This latest memoir concentrates on the area between the Bowland Fells and Longridge Fell in the east to the coastal plain of the Fylde in the west. The information provided will prove useful for those involved in the search for natural resources such as oil and gas in Lancashire. Also it will be useful for engineers and planners in a district crossed by major arterial road and rail routes as well as vital oil, gas and water pipelines. The area's comprehensive geological history is described and clearly illustrated through sketch maps and colour photographs.
