TRIASSIC STRATA OF CUMBERLAND AND DUMFRIES. 363 



down by a faulty and the upper coal-measures thus coming 

 in and replacing such strata. 



Section from Sir F. Graham's Saw-mill to the end of the 



Carlinway Plantation, below the Tilery. 



Distance, i| mile. 



About half a mile to the south-east of the Moat Quarry, 

 mentioned in the last section, is a small valley running 

 nearly paraEel to that of the Liddel, in which flows a 

 stream known by the name of the Carlinway Burn, that 

 joins the Esk above Netherby. It commences at the 

 saw-mill belonging to Sir Frederick Graham, just below 

 which is seen in the brook a dark red sandstone, thin-bedded 

 and ripple-marked, in all respects similar to that seen at 

 Moat, of which, no doubt, it is a continuation. The dip 

 of this stone is to the W. at an angle of 8°. For a distance 

 of about three-fourths of a mile up the brook, red shales 

 and sandstones are seen dipping slightly to the west until 

 we reach a bed of breccia, composed of red and white 

 sandstone and limestone in a red paste, having a thick- 

 ness of 7 feet, resting on a variegated red sandstone. 

 The dip of these strata is to the N.E. at an angle of i8°. 

 The disturbance which has caused this change of dip 

 cannot be clearly seen. For a distance of about lOO yards 

 above the bed of breccia the strata cannot be traced ; and 

 when they do make their appearance in the form of soft 

 red clays, their position is difficult to determine, but most 

 probably they incline to the north-east. Again,, for about 

 100 yards the strata are covered by alluvium. Then
