Synopsis
Excerpt from The Flora of Oxfordshire: Being a Topographical and Historical Account of the Flowering Plants and Ferns Found in the County With Sketches of the Progress of Oxfordshire Botany During the Last Three Centuries
Elevation of Surface. The surface of the county is very diversified, varying from the flat meadows bordering its rivers, to the rounded knolls of north Oxford and the chalk downs of the south; but on the whole there is a gradual slope from the north and west to the South and east over the Liassic and Oolitic strata, till the chalk hills are met in the south, through which the Thames has cut its channel.
