The presentation of this edition is much improved over some of Tony Oldham's earlier publications. There is still a wealth of information contained in its pages too. Even the most minor sites are listed, descriptions are detailed and there are many sketches and surveys. The references are particularly useful for anyone researching sites in the area. The book principally covers the limestone outcrops of the Forest of Dean, to the East and English side of the river Wye.
