DESCRIPTION-. 



Thick Loam. 



Hard coarse Oolite of a red colour. 



Brown Oolitic stone. 



Oolitic. 



Good Oolitic stone for building. 



There are but few fossils found in these beds, which renders them of 

 more value for the purpose for which they are required. Some Pectens 

 and Terebratulce are found in the Red Crash, and a few other shells, in 

 the underlying strata, but the Freestone is almost entirely exempt from 

 fossils of any description, and being, when first quarried, so easy to cut, 

 and afterwards becoming so hard, it is much sought after, and is of con- 

 siderable value to the owners.
