 | | The Topography, Geology and Soils of The Yorkshire Wolds. |
 | | The northern and western fronts of the Yorkshire Wolds are towering and precipitous, from which the land gradually and insensibly sinks into the low country of Holderness; the surface of the country everywhere, and the strata of which it is formed, dipping to the Southeast. |
 | | The Yorkshire Wolds, forming a distinct geological and geographical entity of 1350 square kilometres, represents the northernmost outcrop of the great band of chalk which extends from the downs of Wessex, skirts East Anglia, continues through the Lincolnshire Wolds, and ends abruptly at Flamborough Head on the North Sea coast. |
