Proceeding along the shore, and passing the "Warren-Farm section 

 and the point where the track from the lime-kilns descends to the 

 shore — at about the place in the cliff which is above the arrow 

 on the left-hand side of the scene depicted in fig.' 1 (p. 13), the 

 observer will find an interesting exposure.

Bed 4 (2) is interesting, having sun-cracks in its component 

 layers, and reminds one of the Lycopodites Beds at New Clifton, 

 Bristol. 



On this west side of Watchet there are no other sections that 

 require attention. 



Coast between Watchet and Combwich. — Sections in the 

 foreshore immediately to the east of Watchet have been described 

 by Prof. Boyd Dawkins, and those in the railway -cuttings at 

 Doniford by J. H. Blake ; but, so faulted are the beds, that their 

 investigation is more interesting from the tectonic than from the 

 stratigraphical point of view. 



1 The details of the beds from 21 downwards were obtained at the Warren- 

 Farm section.
