Eeturning to Campden via Longlands, Wliite Quartz and 

 Jasper are abundant, with, some Slate and Flint, and tlie field 

 descending to the Eailway Station is literally strewed with the 

 N.D. Pebbles. Passing the promontory of Aston Magna, at 

 the cross roads of Batsford, at an elevation of 612 feet, the 

 N.D. which is thinly scattered over the surface, contains a large 

 proportion of Chalk Flints. 



It will therefore be seen that the heights at which the N.D. 

 is met with at Ebrington Hill on the one side, and Batsford on 

 the other, are the same within 5 feet by Aneroid measurement, 

 and that the plateau of the Marlstone seems in this district to 

 be the highest level on which Gravel is found. 



The great increase in the quantity of Chalk Flints at Batsford, 

 as compared with that at Mickleton Tunnel, is worthy of notice. 



At Blackdown the section now shows a depth of nearly 20 

 feet, but Mr. Fletcher, upon whose property it is, informs me 

 that there is Gravel 5 feet lower than was being worked when 

 I was there.
