J. G. GOODCHILD ON THE GLACIAL PHENOMENA OF THE 



of Permian sandstone. The loamy bands are inclined at various 

 angles, and seem to have been moulded over the rock-fragments in 

 one or two cases ; but on the whole it is not clear whether the in- 



The section is principally remarkable 



clination is original or not.

Puckered beds of loam in loamy sand full of stones. Length 4 ft. 



for showing an apparent passage from undoubted glacial deposits, 

 through crushed sandstone amongst the fragments of which the drift 

 has been deposited, into unbroken rock. 



Near Lazonby a deep cutting has been opened about a mile and a 

 half to the north of the one just mentioned. Here there is a con- 

 siderable thickness of alternations of clean sand, beds of loam, and 

 irregular deposits of gravel, throughout the whole of which washed 

 stones occur. These beds seem to lie directly upon the rock in more 

 than one part of the cutting. A few thin bands of loamy clay with 

 traces of lamination occur at intervals ; but no unequivocal indica- 

 tions of original inclination could be found in them. The loamy 

 bands are slightly crumpled throughout the section, and seem to 

 show, by the way the foldings match with those below and above, 

 that some compressing force was exerted against the beds after they 

 were laid down. A considerable length of sections shows plainly 

 enough that the beds have not been disturbed to any greater degree 

 than that indicated by the very slight crumplings of the bands of 

 loam. The stones comprise much Permian sandstone, but no Brock- 

 ram, a large percentage of Lake-country rocks and Carboniferous 

 Limestone, and many stones from Galloway, as well as a few which 

 Prof. Geikie says remind him much of the Lower Old Bed Tuffs at
