The Tabular Hills
My regular stamping ground - the tabular hills mark the southern boundary of the North York Moors National Park. So called because of their distinctive table-top shape, they rise up gently from the south ending abruptly in a series of steep north-facing headlands or nabs. Ranging from 150m (500ft) to over 300m (1,000ft), the nabs have developed as springs eroded the face of the scarp away and offer a striking contrast to the sloping moors beyond. The photo was taken from Birk Nab looking towards the east. The next (wooded) nab, visible in the photo, is called Boon Hill, the one after that is Shepherd's Nab ... etc ... they go all the way to the coast about 30 miles away.
