It will be noticed that at the time when the road was made, 
the upper part of the hill was a peat-covered heath.

The peaty gravel was pebbly and sandy, and contained no 
implements. 
The grey gravel was either clayey or sandy in different 
~ sections, and consisted of angular and subangular flints, a 
number of which were of a deep ochreous tint, and comprised a 
good many rude eolithic implements resembling those of the 
Chalk plateau found by Mr. Harrison and others. 
This was evidently a drift-gravel, perhaps from the north or 
north-west, composed of the débris of some of the Older Ter- 
tiaries, and containing many irregularly-shaped fragments of 
flint, so white as to be easily mistaken for chalk. No chert, rag- 
stone, or ironstone was observable; and I did not see any chalk 
in the sections which I examined. 
The ochreous gravel was much coarser, contained many large 
pebbles, and differed entirely in appearance from the grey gravel. 
I found in it only two implements of plateau-type, and no imple- 
ments of later date were found in either gravel. All the imple- 
ments are much abraded.
