* These beds are concealed by the beach gravel in the direct line of our section, 

 but their outcrop can be distinctly traced on the sea-shore on the opposite side of 

 the promontory of Cranberry Head : they consist of alternating shales and sand- 

 stones ; the latter run out in long ledges, but the former have been washed away 

 by the surf, and can only be seen at low-water of spring tides.
