The bones, except when from the drier parts of the blown-sand, 
were very soft and friable, and were generally so crushed and fractured 
that it was very difficult to remove them. This was no doubt in 
part due to the quantity of fresh water which has flowed out of the 
chalk and percolated through the lower part of this section on its 
way to the beach, where it yet forms a series of fine springs on the 
foreshore. In the old beach the bones were generally water-worn and 
rounded, as might be expected, and this was also sometimes the case
