to the bed.

2 0—Upper Freestone (about two feet exposed at the western end of the 
quarry.) 
The Gryphite Grit appears to be changing from its usual 
ferruginous aspect to that of the Trigonia bed, and frum the 
absence of most of its characteristic fossils, it is difficult to 
identify it. 
Along the side of the road leading over the hill there are 
several shallow pits. In those near the top of the slope, on the 
Stanley End side, the Clypeus beds are seen, with Terebratula 
globata in considerable numbers and varieties, and frequently 
of large size. 
One of these pits has been excavated to the depth of 10 feet, 
and contains the following beds :— 
ins. 
0—White Oolitic Limestone, broken up. 
0—Globata bed, with Terebratula globata in large numbers. 
0—Hard brown bed, nodular at the base. 
0—Brown beds, mostly concealed by detritus. 
In Mr Leigh’s quarry, at the south-west end of the hills 
close to Pen wood, the Clypeus beds are well shown. The 
following is the section :—

There is no appearance of Fuller’s Earth overlying the 
Clypeus beds, but in the adjacent fields on the south side the 
ground rises to a considerable eminence, known as Bown hill, 
in which the Fuller’s Earth comes in, and upon the hill is a
