 it impossible to give a satisfactory list of the local 

 brambles, as they have not been critically examined in 

 recent years. The names given to their herbarium 

 specimens by Gibson and Leyland are retained unchang- 

 ed. The only recent additions to the list were obtained 

 in Norland, from Sterne Mill upwards, by Mr. J. T.
