LOWER LUDLOW 
Crossing Ludford Bridge, the Members visited the far-famed 
** Ludford-Lane” section, where the Chonetes-Flags, Ludlow Bone-Bed, 
Sandy Shales, Downton Bone-Bed, and basal Downton-Castle Sand- 
stones are well exposed and richly fossiliferous. Many examples 
of the characteristic fossils were obtained. 
After tea on Whitcliffe, the large quarry by the Wigmore Road 
was visited. It shows the Concretion-Bed well, with the Chonetes- 
Flags above and the Rhynchonella-Flags below. Specimens of Serpulites 
longissimus were particularly fine and abundant here. 
CHURCH STRETTON 
On Wednesday, the Members left Ludlow for Church Stretton by 
the 10.13 a:m. train. At Church Stretton Station they were met by 
Mr E. S. Cobbold, F.G.S., who—in conjunction with the Hon. Secre- 
tary—conducted the party throughout the day. 
The Members drove from the station, through the town (PI. XI.) 
and for a short distance along the foot of the great upland of the 
Longmynd Hills, turning for the conspicuous Caer Caradoc Hill 
(Pl. XU.) by the first lane to the right after passing through All 
Stretton. : 
In the small quarry at the northern end of the hill, Mr Cobbold 
made some remarks on the geology, similar to those contained in the 
following notes supplied by Dr C. Callaway, who was unable to attend 
the excursion. : 
“‘The hill known as Caer Caradoc is a wedge-like mass of 
Uriconian rock, with intrusives thrust up between younger strata, with 
faulted junctions. It is mainly composed of felspathic grits, felsites, 
ashy shales, and indurated clay-stones, contorted into folds, the main 
axes of which often lie transversely to the ridge, which strikes north- 
east and south-west.. Masses of greenstone (often dolerite) break up
