124 MEETINGS. 



No. 3. — Fort Le Marchant 



Between Spur Point and Fort Le Marchant several 

 deposits have been noted, though not yet carefully and 

 critically examined. At Fort Le Marchant a very good 

 section is exposed (see photograph). The deposit is a very 

 large one, extending across the promontory in front of the 

 Fort, and is covered by blown sand, which, in some places, is 

 many feet thick. The best section is to be found on the 

 north-east face, where it rests immediately behind the top of 

 the present beach. The rolled stones are imbedded in a 

 consolidated sand, and the deposit presents the appearance, 

 though it has not the hardness, of a conglomerate. At its 

 face it is 5 feet deep, and over 200 feet long. It extends 

 below its junction with the recent beach, and evidently rests 

 on sea-worn rocks of its own date, such rock being visible 

 here and there (see photograph No. 4) where the denudation 

 and erosion permit. 



No. 4.— Mont Guet. 



The quarries at Mont Cuet (see photographs No. 5 and 6), 

 the coast around that promontory as well as the sea coast 

 along L'Ancresse Bay have been visited, and found to contain 

 deposits too numerous to be examined in detail. These exist, 

 practically, in all the quarry cuttings on the land side as well 

 as the sea side, thus showing Mont Cuet as an island at the 

 date of the beaches. 



No. 5. — Quarry at L' Islet. 

 This has been referred to under the heading " Sand." 

 The quarry shows that the sea beat against the rocks (see 

 photograph No. 1), and deposited rolled stones as a beach 

 around them and into their crevices. After the retirement of 

 the sea, sand blew over and covered the whole as an immense 

 dune which has been opened for quarrying. 



No. 6. — 2nd Quarry at F Islet. 



This quarry shows the same order. First a floor of beach 

 on the side of (2nd) a mass of sea- worn rocks covered over by 

 a (3rd) deposit of sand. The quarry shows this as a section 

 (see photograph No. 2). 



No. 7. — Ronceval. 

 Beach deposits and pockets of rolled stones have been 

 viewed in many places around the Ronceval Hill, but not 

 examined in detail (see photograph of lane hedge at Noirmont, 



No. 7).
