T. LerenHton's account of an “Excursion to Tilburstow Hill’”’* 
continues his work eastward (see first notice of this year). I 
beg leave to doubt whether the beds in the large pits north of 
the high road can be altogether grouped with the Folkestone 
Beds. Late visits to this long line of section, perhaps now in 
better form than then, lead me to think that Sandgate Beds 
and Hythe Beds are also shown, Folkestone Beds only at one 
part. 
In noticing ‘‘ Fossils from the Lower Greensand of Great 
Chart, in Kent,’’+ and the beds from which they came, Dr. J. W. 
Greeory refers to other parts, including Surrey, giving a table 
of our representatives of the Kentish beds, and making the 
upper part of our Folkestone Sand the equivalent of the Lower 
Gault further east. 
G. E. Grimes records ‘Two Occurrences of Radiolarians in 
English Cretaceous Rocks,’’} one being in the rock above the 
Fuller’s earth of the Lower Greensand between Redhill and 
Nutfield, the other in the Upper Greensand of Colley Farm, 
near Reigate. 
W. G. Perrce, in a Presidential Address,§ drew attention to 
the water-supply of Richmond, from a well and galleries in the 
Chalk. 
In this year there was a re-issue of Prestwich’s important 
work, ‘“‘A Geological Inquiry respecting the Water-bearing 
Strata of the Country around London, .. .’’|| with a new 
Preface and ‘Preliminary Remarks,” referring to the deep 
borings that have been made since the original issue, and to 
the possibility of getting water from the Lower Greensand deep 
underground. 
Sheet 12 of the Index Map of the Geological Survey, printed 
in colours, on the scale of four miles to an inch, was published 
this year. It represents the whole of Surrey, and much more; 
but, as we have a copy, no more need be said of it. 
1896. 
T. LeicHton again adds to our Lower Greensand literature, 
by an account of an ‘“ Excursion to Dorking and Leith Hill.’”4 
An outcrop of Bargate Sand and Stone, from beneath Folkestone 
Sands, was found at Dorking, three miles east of any record. 
Several other sections are noticed.
