Lower Weston, on the site of a new brewery which is being erected 
for the Bath Brewery Company. The paper is published in these 
Proceedings at page 306. 
The Chairman, at the conclusion of the Rev. H. H. Winwood’s 
remarks, spoke of the value of the paper and the valuable addition 
which it would make to the Field Club Proceedings. He also 
alluded to the value of the discoveries, and went on to point out 
how in some respects the results resembled those of the Bitton 
boring. He could say, on behalf of Mr. Winwood, that he would 
be only too happy to answer any questions which Members might 
wish to put. He was sure that the more they cross-examined him 
the more he would be pleased. Replying to a question by Mr. 
Daubeny as to the depth of the Rhetic bed, Mr. Winwood replied 
that roughly speaking it was from 10 to 15 feet. Mr. Winwood 
having answered a number of other questions of detail put by 
Canon Ellacombe, Dr. Mantell, and others, Mr. MeMurtrie made 
some interesting observations. He remarked that in connection 
with investigations, the results of which had been so lucidly 
described by Mr. Winwood, one could not fail to remember what 
aname Mr. Moore made for himself in the earlier geological days 
in this part of the country by discoveries of that formation, 
adding enormously to the geological interest in this part of 
England. With regard to the first boring which Mr. Winwood 
described, he thought it was a very fair example of the Strata 
which they met with in various parts of this district. He 
heartily joined with the Chairman in thanking Mr, Winwood for 
his extremely interesting paper, and he only wished a greater 
interest was manifested in the subject among the younger section 
of the community, who would be ready to come on and take up 
the work of the older Members of the Society. They would all 
agree with him that there was plenty of scope for investigations, 
for there never was a finer district in which to study geology. 
At the close of Mr. Winwood’s paper, a paper was read by 
Captain A. C. Burmester on “The Hill and Ruins of Sigari in
