In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Attermire like this:

HATTERMIRE, an amphitheatre of lofty precipices of mountain limestone, in W. R. Yorkshire; 2 miles E of Settle. The precipices are so rent and fissured as to resemble ranges of basaltic columns; and a cave in the face of one of them was found to contain some implements of the Romans.
