The form of the county is distinguished by two horns or projections, running east and west from its northern side; one of which is made by the hundred of Wirral, lying between the estuaries of the Mersey and the Dee; the other by a part of Macclesfield hundred, pushing out between Derbyshire and Yorkshire. A line drawn from the extremities of these projections is found to measure 58 miles; but the extent of the county from east to west, across its middle, does not exceed 40 miles. Its greatest ex tent from north to south is about 30 miles. In cir cumference it is about 112 miles, and, according to the agricultural survey of the county, published by the Board of Agriculture, it contains about acres.
