GREEN or CHLORITE SAND. 
Soil.™ Colour, dark grey, dries whiter-— another part so dark when wet and fresh plowed, as 
to be called black land, but dries much whiter. 
Consistence, Dry, a fine mellow loam — where wet rather sticky. 
Subsoil, Sandy, cohesive, absorbent. 
Excavations, > Sides stand perpendicular, cohesive sand, dry ; blue grey or greyish green. 
Hollow-ways, $ occasioned by small blackish specks of Chlorite— -small Mica in some 5 beds" 
Stratum, Sand and incompact Sand stone, with layers of more concrete lumps or nodules, 
from some of which Burs or scythe stones are made. 
Water, very bright, copious, and of a high temperature, where that of the Chalk and Sand 
flows all from this Stratum. In the west much used in irrigation. 
No road stone along the course of this Stratum, and its white land boundary, but partakes 
either of Chalk, Malm, Greensand, or soft Freestone, or Sand concreted by a ferruginous 
cement; many of the roads (as in Sussex) are consequently bad. 
Much of the first breadth of Sand from the Chalk hills in Sussex and Kent, is now, or till 
lately, was uninclosed heath.
