Klebsormidium crenulatum - near Helwith Bridge


This wall is above the road from Helwith Bridge to Wharf and Austwick. The ridge of rock near the skyline is greywacke - a sort of metamorphosed sandstone.
I think this must be its most south-westerly occurrence.
The green alga on the stones in the wall is Klebsormidium crenualatum.
