The series of beds put under the No. 4 are really the 
representatives of the Peagrit series of the classic Cotteswold 
sections. This series may be recognised not only by the fossils 
it contains, but by the presence of the flattened pisolites. 
Some of the beds are soft and sandy; but, in general, the beds 
of this series in this cutting are hard and crystalline. Bed 2 of 
the above section introduces a point of much interest. It is, 
evidently, exactly the same as the beds which I described in 
Section VIT of my former paper *—a cutting at Syreford about 
three-quarters of a mile distant. 
, At that time I thought that these sandy beds (Syreford 
section, beds 1-4) represented the Harford Sands + resting on 
Upper Freestone; and I was anxious to know how they were 
connected with the Upper Lias. The exposure which I am at 
present dealing with shews that this was an error. Bed 4 is 
evidently the representative of the Peagrit series; and we may 
suppose beds 5 and 6 of the Syreford section to be about the 
same ; while the sandy strata (beds 2-3; Syreford section, beds 
1-4) are evidently the same. Their position, therefore, is above 
the Peagrit series, and below the actual Lower Freestone (bed 
1 of the section). Similar sandy strata occupy the same 
position at Cleeve Hill, as the following generalized section 
will shew.
