The powdery appearance was caused by glands scattered all over the {{w|frond}}; this, and its general aspect, showed it to be the {{w|Polypodium cambricum|Limestone Polypody}}. No locality could be more favourable to its growth than these woods, where the immense boulders of {{w|limestone}} greeting us at every step left no room to doubt the nature of the rock.”
