following section is displayed on the left bank. From the water's 

 edge up to 40 feet is a very vesicular and rubbly decomposed 

 basalt. On this rests the Eocene rock. Fi'agnients of polyzoal 

 rock were found, as well as brown sandy limestone. Then occui's 

 a stretch of level ground which runs back from the river to an 

 escarpment of Newer Volcanic rock, which flanks the Maude table- 

 land. There is no clear exposure of the Eocene rock in the 

 section, but it is visible a quarter of a mile below under the 

 Newer Volcanic rock, dropping rapidly to the southwards, as seen 

 in the long cliff" section. There is, as mentioned, no actual 

 exposure of the Older Volcanic rock south of this, and judging by 

 the soil and surface contour we think it comes to the river level 

 near the house in Section IV., Allotment E (Oalleray's). The 

 slopes about here are composed of the marine series with the 

 usual capping of Newer Volcanic rock. About half a mile south 

 of Calleray's there is an exposure of Eocene in the river bed at 

 the foot of a steep cliff". On the opposite (right) bank of the 

 stream a long escarpment runs east and west, and the almost 

 horizon'tal lines of stratification, as shown by the earthy lime- 

 stone bands, are a marked feature in the landscape. From 

 a road-cutting along the foot of this hill, about a couple 

 of hundred yards above Moodie's homestead, we gathered a 

 few fossils.
