Remarks. 
10. This rock has all the appearance of having been 
hollowed out and smoothed by water. The 
hollows in the rock are filled with mud and 
small water-worn pebbles. When this deposit 
was taken out, the surface of the rock filled 
with it was found smoothed, as frequently seen 
in rivers. 
This rock, when viewed with the telescopic 
spirit-level from the north bank of the river, is 
apparently a little higher than the base of the 
cliffs Nos. 7 and 8, 
This shelf is bounded by a steep bank on the 
north ; but being in a corn-field, its original 
features have been much effaced. 
The flat here, bounded by a steepish bank, is 
of considerable extent. It occurs in two 
fields, 
On the south side of the river, opposite to 
this place, there is a steep bank facing the 
river, on several parts of which, at a height 
of from 50 to 60 feet above the river, there 
are traces of an old water-line. 
The indication of this bank is very slight, in 
consequence of being in fields under the plough. 
Its height above the river is apparently about 
the same as at Fishwick Churchyard. 
These rocks reach from the river channel to the — 
top of the bank, which is about 80 feet above 
the river. There are portions of rock facing 
the west nearly to the top, much worn and 
rounded, as if by water.
