quite naiTow, is a large bed of sub-augular Oolitic Gravel, (with 

 some Marlstone,) at least 10 feet thick. 



At Leckhampton this Gravel is largely developed, also a 

 peculiar small sub-angular Gravel which I intend to describe 

 separately, as it is met with elsewhere, and which, as I have 

 mentioned before, is considered by Mr. Hull, in his " Memoirs 

 of the Cotteswolds "to be the remains of a raised sea beach — 

 an opinion from which I dissent. 



At Witcombe, Oolitic gravel is found; also at the foot of 

 the range continuing to Stroud, being in many places of 

 considerable thickness. 



At Gannicox's pit, which is near to Stroud and on the road 

 to Cainscross, the upper part running up to the Great Western 

 Railway, there is a very large quantity of Oolitic detritus, 

 mixed with some Marlstone and Lias.
