The Pea-grit is not exposed in the south-west end of the 
hill, and there is no other Section of Inferior Oolite in that 
direction nearer than the Buckholt quarry, at the top of the 
old Frocester hill, two miles distant, but there the Pea-grit has 
disappeared. I have traced it south of Selsley as far as 
Horsley, where it appears as a brown coarse rock, with small 
Pisolites, rather sparingly distributed, but it is probable that 
its limit in that direction is not far distant. A trace of it also 
occurs at Uleybury, but it has lost much of its ferruginous 
character. 
The next quarry higher up the hill (No. 2) exposes the 
building Freestone, but a talus has formed at the foot of the 
quarry, which conceals some of the beds, but when worked 
there were not more than 14 feet exposed. It is rather singular 
that so little of the Freestone should have been worked in this 
hill, as the beds must be 70 feet thick. In this quarry the 
Oolite Marl is reduced to a bed of about a foot and in some 
places to six inches, charged with Terebratula fimbria, Rhyncho- 
nella subobsoleta, and other fossils of the Marl. In the upper 
end of the quarry the Marly Limestone, which contains several 
species of Nerinea, is represented by a single patch about 18 
inches thick and only three or four feet in length. This Marly 
Limestone is referred to by Lycett as extending along the 
side of the Nailsworth valley, and as appearing at Selsley in 
diminishing importance. In fact the whole of the Marl beds 
are on the point of disappearing altogether; and if we examine | 
the Section in Mr Leigh’s quarry, on the south-western end of 
the hill, we find that the Marly Limestone is lost, and the Marl 
bed is reduced to four inches of sandy grit, containing Terebra- 
tula fimbria. At the distance of a mile towards the south-west 
it has probably thinned out entirely. 
In the quarry at Selsley as well as at Stroud hill and some 
other places the Oolite Marl appears to pass into the Upper 
Freestone. At Selsley, in one part of the Section, it is difficult
