Diagrammatic Representation of the Beaches arranged according to 



Level. 



With a few exceptions the raised beaches are formed 

 under a cliff-head or under a rubble-head. These heads will 

 be discussed later. As a rule the patches of beach on the 

 south side are purely remains which have been preserved in 

 rock crevasses or in caves, and have been so preserved by 

 having been completely covered by the cliff-head which has 

 formed over them. These patches naturally, owing to the 

 positions in which they have been preserved, are irregular in
