View of cliffs at Stair Hole,near Lulworth,Dorset,UK,showing folded rock strata. The layers of Jurassic rock,originally deposited in horizontal beds,have been folded as a result of the collision between the African & European crustal plates. The collision was responsible for the uplifting of the Alps and the Dorset folding has been described as "the outer ripples of the Alpine storm" | |
