REPORTS AND PROCEEDINGS. 
EDINBURGH GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY. 
March 16th, 1921.—Mr. K. B. Bailey, M.C., B.A., F.G.S., F.R.S.H. 
in the chair. 
“Glacial Drainage Phenomena in the Neighbourhood of 
Edinburgh.” By D. Anderson, M.A. 
Mr. Anderson gave a minute description of the lie of the land 
to the east, south, and west of Edinburgh, particularly in connexion 
with a number of natural features generally supposed to be glacial 
channels, which conveyed away the melt waters of the great Ice 
Sheet at the time of its retreat owing to warmer conditions of 
climate coming on. The address was illustrated by lantern views 
and amap. Certain of the glacial channels, as these at Fairmile- 
head, Hunters Tryst, the White Hill, or “ T”’ Plantation, Blackford 
Hill, Braid Burn, and a fine example of Kingsknowe on the golf 
course, were specially noticed and illustrated. A main point of the 
address was to connect the system of glacial drainage channels of 
Kast Lothian, described by Messrs. Bailey and Kendall, with those 
in the neighbourhood of Edinburgh.
