(pdf Here on looking up we see the magnesian limestone 
like a wall, overhanging at the horizon the abutting 
edges of these inclining strata. Leaving these beds which 
extend from the Capstern point, is a division of 20 paces 
of rubbly ground, through which appear small irre- 
gular patches of grey limestone, the soil all deep red, 
and they lie sweeping to the horizon, on one point hori- 
zontal ; in all including a space of 140 paces to the next 
great iron ring and mooring chain. These broken beds 
of 16 feet in all, lying in deep red marie, with divisions of 
beds of coralloids, decomposed and ferruginous, some of 
red and some of grey limestone. 
You see them next broken by a vein of

thick, which dips perpendicularly almost to the River. 
Next are three limestone beds, each parted by a little red 
earth and veins of decayed coralloids between some of them 3
