	On leaving Llanrwst Grammar School Tiddeman studied at Oriel College Oxford under Professor Phillips (William Smith’s nephew). Tiddeman was appointed to the Geological Survey in 1864 as an assistant geologist . He was chiefly employed with the survey of the Carboniferous rocks of North Lancashire, West Yorkshire and Westmorland, but also worked in North Wales and South Glamorgan . He is best known for his pioneering work on the Carbonifereous “reef knolls” and the Quaternary deposits of the Victoria Cave, both near Settle. His understanding of the fossil reef moundss fringing the Askrigg Block platform and the influence of fault movements during sedimentary deposition were presented to the International Geological Congress in 1888. His then controversial ideas are now accepted and illustrated by the modern diagram from the Pennines and adjacent areas regional guide which shows the juxtaposition of the reefs with the Craven faults on the edge of the Askrigg Block at the margin of the Craven Basin .

He was chiefly employed with the survey of the Carboniferous rocks of North Lancashire, West Yorkshire and Westmorland, but also worked in North Wales and South Glamorgan .

His understanding of the fossil reef moundss fringing the Askrigg Block platform and the influence of fault movements during sedimentary deposition were presented to the International Geological Congress in 1888. His then controversial ideas are now accepted and illustrated by the modern diagram from the Pennines and adjacent areas regional guide which shows the juxtaposition of the reefs with the Craven faults on the edge of the Askrigg Block at the margin of the Craven Basin .

			In addition to the obligatory Geological Survey memoirs, Tiddeman’s study of the Victoria Cave near Settle recognised pre-glacial cave deposits with the bones of hippopotamus, hyena and humans . He supervised the excavations from 1873 to 1878 following on from William Boyd Dawkins (an eminent expert on Ice Age mammals), but the two had opposing views about ice ages and interglacial periods. Tiddeman was decried by Professor Dawkins, but he was eventually proved correct although it took another 30 years before Tiddeman’s views were accepted. In 1881 the geologist James Geikie (brother of the Geological Survey director from 1882 - Archibald Geikie) described Dawkins as “…..a vain cocky humbug….It is monstrous that such a nincompoop in physical geology should be allowed to strut about as an authority…” . Tiddeman obviously had an uphill struggle against the powerful professor.
