It occupies a position on both sides of How Gill, just under 1 km north of the village of Hury, in Baldersdale. The site is important as the type locality of the Botany Limestone,[1][2] a widespread marker horizon that is key to an understanding of the stratigraphy of the Namurian sediments of the North Pennines and Northumberland Trough.[3] References1. ^{{cite journal|last=Carruthers|first=R G|year=1937|title=Alston Moor to Botany and Tanhill|journal=Proceedings of the Yorkshire Geological Society|volume=23|pages=236–253|doi=10.1144/pygs.23.4.236}} {{SSSIs County Durham}}2. ^{{cite journal|last=Reading|first=Harold G|year=1957|title=The stratigraphy and structure of the Cotherstone Syncline|journal=Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society|volume=113|pages=27–56|doi=10.1144/GSL.JGS.1957.113.01-04.03}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.english-nature.org.uk/citation/citation_photo/1003000.pdf |title=Botany Hill |year=1984 |publisher=English Nature |accessdate=18 July 2010}} 1 : Sites of Special Scientific Interest in County Durham |
