Leaving the bog we skirted a field and followed the side of a 

 stream, where we got Potamogeton polygonifoliiis. On the banks 

 of a drain at the other side of this field Festiica pratensis, Glyceria 

 plicata, and Carex viilpina were collected. On the roadside 

 Rumex neinorostis and Bryonia alba, then into a magnesian

 east of Askern, past the Church, we got Reseda luteola and Carex 

 tniiricata. In a damp quarry just opposite the entrance to the
