T—TRIAS.—New Rep Sanpstone.—tThis, the last in the 
series, separated from the Permian by a long interval of time, 
occupies the south of the County with the exception of such 
outliers and patches of other strata occurring here and there, as 
have been already mentioned. There are two main beds—the 
Bunter yellow or red sandstone, with quartzose pebbles frequently 
conglomerate, which is found in strips and patches in the follow- 
ing localities: —at Mappleton and Sandybrook, between Ash- 
bourne and Mugginton, between Edlaston and Brailsford, from 
Morley to Breadsall, at Sandiacre, on the south side of the Trent 
between Foremark and Repton Rocks, rising just north of 
Foremark into vertical cliffs known as Anchor Church, from 
Repton to Bretby Park, and in a strip north-west from Linton ; 
and the Keuper red marls and waterstones (Lower Keuper) 
which occupy the remainder of the area. The latter (the Water- 
stones) usually border the Keuper Marl, occurring in fair-sized 
tracts from Mayfield to Yeldersley, about Norbury, Snelston, and 
Stydd, between Shirley and Ednaston, and below Brailsford, 
on a strip on which Kirk Langley is situated, in a small oblong 
piece at Allestree, by Sandiacre, at Weston Cliff, and in several 
places south of the Trent, as on the north-east of Cauldwell, 
about Smisby, north and south by Melbourne, around Repton 
and Winshill, and north-east of Newton Solney.
