From the “Sand burrs” Mr. Newton identified Ammonites 
radians, and from “3” similar in every respect to the same 
numbered bed at the first sinking the following— 
Ammonites communis, A. bifrons, Rhynconella Moore. 
Water just oozing up under iron shot bed. 
Some six or seven trial holes have lately been sunk at Monks- 
wood in connection with the contemplated extension of the 
Reservoir ; and through the civility and assistance of Mr. Charles 
Gilby I am enabled to give the following particulars. 
The height above Ordnance datum are entirely due to Mr. 
Gilby’s observations ; the depth of the holes and the thickness 
of the beds have been verified by myself.
