 Wcaldcn Exploration. 8vo. Brigliton. 



Give an account of the work down to 1825 feet (second boring). The 

 details from the surface to 374 feet arc in the Tenth Eeport ; from 374 

 feet to 1546 feet, in the Twelfth. The Thirteenth contains the Eeport 

 submitted to the British Association in 1875, also the results of Tem- 

 perature observations. A notice of the Sperenberg Boring is given in 

 the Tenth. "W.T. 



Willett, H., and W. Topley. Second Report of the Sub-Wealden 



Exploration Committee. Rep. Brit. Assoc, for 1874, pp. 21, 22. 

 Gives a general description of progress (of the first boring) down to 

 1000 feet (see p. 40). 



Wilson, J. M. On the probable Existence of a considerable Fault 

 in the Lias near Eugby, and of a new Outlier of the Oolite. 

 Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc. vol. xxxi. pp. 355, 356. 

 Describes a sand-pit [in the Drift] at Low Morton, the sand of which 

 lies against a highly inclined face of clay. Suggests that this may be 

 due to a fault, which can be similarly traced for half a mile. S.E. this 

 line passes Kilsby Tunnel, where much difiiculty was encountered from 

 water; N.W. the line of suj)posed fault passes between Eugby and 

 Brown sever ; if prolonged further N.W. it would join the Nuneaton 

 fault, both alike throwing down to the N.E. On the plateau at Browns- 

 over there is a mass of Oolite, rudely stratified, having a Stonesfield 

 Slate character. The author believes that this is an outlier in place, and 

 that the fault here has a throw of about 500 feet. W. T.

School Nat. Hist. Soc. for 1874, pp. 8-13, plate 6 (map and 



section). 



Sections in Hillmorton seem to show a fault between sand and L. 



Lias clay, the junction overlain by gravel. The fault trends N.W. and 



downthrows to N.E., accounting for the Oolitic deposit at Brownsover 



described in 1871 as Drift, but now regarded as an outlier. W. H. D.

Winwood, Rev. H. H. iN'otes on some Eailway-Sections near Bath. 

 Proc. Bath Field-Cluh, vol. iii. no. 2, pp. 129-135. 



New sections on the Bath and Evercreech Extension Line between 

 Bath and Combe Down are described. These include sections of Gravel, 

 Inf. Oolite, Midford Sands, XJ., M., and L. Lias. The fossils from the 

 several formations are noticed, those from the Midford Sands having, it 

 is considered, an OoUtic character. H. B. W.

 yielded by a <' bone-bed" there.
