Cleeve Hill, described by Lucy as a Glacial boulder' having 

 been identified as a " burr " in the Harford Sands — a deposit 

 of Inferior-Oolite age.* 



The principal sections in the Vale of Moreton and con- 

 tiguous areas recorded by Lucy and others are at : — 



Honington Hill (362 feet above O.D.),'' Mickleton Tunnel (490),* 

 Wilmington (272),'' Blackdown (400)/' Stretton-on-the-Fosse (380)," Bur- 

 mington,** Chipping Campden,' Berrington, '" Paxford (500)/' Todenham 

 (412),' ^ Aston Magna(40o)/ ' WestonPark Farm,' * Little\Volford(4oo),i = 

 Great Wolford (365),"^ Lower Lemington (360).'" Long Compton,"* Bar- 

 ton-on-the-Heath,''' Moreton-in-the-^Iarsh (415),-" Four-Shire Stone 

 (425),-" Evenlode (near),-- Adlestrop,-" Daylesford (380),'--' Oddington,-" 

 Kingham (360),-'' Churchill-Heath Farm (near)," Bledington (350)'* Fos- 

 cote (390),'^'-' Bowl (395),-''' and Bruern Wood,'-'" Lyneham.^" Milton 

 (400),^' and Ascot (above Langley Mill)."- 



In the valleys of the Churn, Colne and \Mndrush there 

 are extensive deposits of waterworn gravel formed of local 

 rocks with an occasional Drift pebble, such as in the glebe 

 gravel-pit at Kempsford {teste Rev. W. Butt). 



Mr L. Richardson" and Dr A. E. Salter-* have not detected 

 any " Northern Drift " in the Vale of Bourton, but Prof. Hull 

 says that it 



" follows the western flank of the Bourton Valley along the southern bank 

 of the Windrush River nearly as far as Burford, where it strikes south- 

 wards for several miles."" ^ 



Among the more important sections enumerated above, is 

 that at Aston Magna, now overgrown, where Gavey^'' noticed 

 large flints from the chalk (some weighing one to two hundred- 

 weight) along with blocks of chalk, greensand and clay, together 

 with a quantity of siliceous sand and pebbles. The late R. F. 

 Tomes thought that some of the blocks were glacially striated. ^^
