The view down the Burbage valley from the north end of Burbage Edge. Higger Tor is the highest feature on the skyline, with the Carl Wark hill fort in the centre. The v-shaped notch of the Burbage Brook is especially clear in this vertical exaggeration. This probably indicates renewed downcutting during post-glacial isostatic uplift of the area.
