Mrs Radcliffe's Ride over Skiddaw, 1794 
Page 307:-  "..."
"At length, passing the skirts of the two points of Skiddaw which are nearest to Derwent water, we approached the third and loftiest, and then perceived that their steep sides, together with the ridges which connect them, were entirely covered near the summits with a whitish shivered slate, which threatens to slide down them with every gust of wind. The broken state of this slate makes the present summits seem like ruins of others - a circumstance as extraordinary in appearance as difficult to be accounted for."
