From the place where the 

 above succession was measured 

 the shelly limestone can be 

 traced in the bank, at first 

 rising and then falling east- 

 ward to the level of the rails. 

 The other beds doubtless come 

 in above, and where the bank 

 is cut back for the railway- 

 siding a different set of beds is 

 exposed, dipping at an angle 

 of 18° to TS. 30° E. The section

With the exception of the 

 lowest stratum of shelly marl, 

 these beds are quite different 

 from any seen elsewhere in the 

 Yale of W ardour. We found 

 Cyprids in the beds numbered 

 5, 6, 7, and they were identified 

 by Prof. T. Kupert Jones as 

 Cypridea punctata, with the 

 addition of Cyprione Bristovii
