Museum (mounted with the other) is highly pyritic. The 
late R. F. Tomes informed the writer that these specimens 
were procured by himself and Mr Kershaw * from a well 
in the village, and that similar pieces—but much affected 
by atmospheric influences—were noticed on the ploughed 
fields near Church Lench. The finding of pieces of 
Bone-bed full of fish-remains is interesting, as showing 
that similar conditions obtain here as at Wainlode Cliff: 
a sandstone-bed without fish-remains passing into a 
pytitic stratum one inch thick, and full of such remains. 
As showing the necessity for re-mapping this district 
according to the views now commonly accepted,* it may 
be mentioned that the Upper Keuper Marls extend from 
the so-represented inlier of Keuper deposits (half-a-mile 
north of Church Lench) to Morton Low: the ridge 
where traversed by the road between Church Lench and 
Morton Low being capped by “ Tea-green Marls.” Bed 7 
was observed cropping out in the road south of Rough 
Hill Wood, and contained Pecten valoniensis, Schizodus, 
radioles of an echinoid, and much shell-débris. 
Between Rough Hill Wood and Weethley, and again 
between the latter locality and three-quarters of a mile 
south-west of South Littleton, no exposures of the Rheetic 
beds were observed. Mr Tomes kindly conducted the 
writer to an exposure half-a-mile north-west of South 
Littleton which showed :
