Lindum Valley

Lindum Valley is an ice-filled valley that opens northward to Hatherton Glacier, lying 5 nautical miles (9 km) west-northwest of Derrick Peak in the Britannia Range, Antarctica. It was named in association with Britannia by a University of Waikato geological party, 1978–79, led by Michael Selby, "Lindum" being an old Roman placename for present-day Lincoln, England.[1]
