PARKSTONE, DORSET. 
(Reid, ‘On Charred Pine-wood from Dorset Peat 
Mosses, Proc. Dorset Nat. Hist. Field Club, Vol. XVI, 
p. 14. 1895.) 
The bottom layers of a peat-moss here contain trunks 
and cones of Pinus sylvestris. 
REDHALL, NEAR EDINBURGH. 
(Henderson, ‘On some Sections of Boulder Clay, Peat, 
and Stratified Beds exposed in a Quarry recently opened 
at Redhall, Slateford, near Edinburgh. TZyvans. Geol. Soc., 
Edinburgh, Vol. IL, p.391. 1874; Geikie, ‘Great Ice Age, 
3rd Edit., pp. 100, 101. 1894; Bennie and Scott, ‘The 
Ancient Lakes of Edinburgh, Proc. R. Phys. Soc. Edin- 
burgh, Vol. X., pp. 126-154. 1889.) 
The Deposit at Redhall, like that of Cowden Glen, 
has been generally accepted as of Interglacial age. The 
many weeds of cultivation, capsules of Flax, and pieces of 
charcoal, that it contains can scarcely belong to any earlier 
period than the Neolithic. The flora closely corresponds 
with that of the upper bed at Hailes.
