Sutridge, and in various tracks leading up the hillside near 
Longhope railway bridge. Here very good continuous 
sections may be seen in sandstones which contain numerous 
limestone layers near their base, each layer being about 4 inches 
thick. 
Farther to the north exposures are to be seen behind the 
station and to the east of Longhope Church, where there is a 
small quarry from which have been obtained : — 
Monticuliporoid . 
Lingula Symondsi (?). 
Stropheodonta n.sp, 
Chonetes striatella. 
Or this lunata. 
Orthis orbicularis. 
IVilsonia Wilsoni. 
Camarotcechia nucula (?). 
Peniamerus linguifer. 
Glassia sp. 
Whitfieldella didyma. 
Pterinea retroflexa var. 
naviformis. 
Dayia navicula. 
Mytilus mvtilimeris. 
Anodontopsis quadratus (?). 
Orthonota amygdalina. 
Orthonota semisulcata. 
Grammy sia sp. ? 
Pseudaixnus securiformis. 
Ortonia conica. 
Platyceras sp. 
Proetus Stokesi (?). 
Calymene intermedia. 
Calymene papillata, var. nov. 
puellaris. 
Where the Ross and Gloucester road crosses the junction 
between the Old Red Sandstone and the Ludlow beds there is 
a cliff by the roadside which shows grey Ludlow Sandstone 
in situ and blocks of Downton Sandstone with Lingula cornea. 
In former days, however, this section gave important 
information, and was described and figures in the Survey 
Memoirs. 1 
The Ludlow beds are shown faulted against a Red Sandstone 
and the fault is stated to run in a north-easterly direction. 
The latter rock is stated to be laminated red shales and sand- 
stone with a green band and some black grained sandstone 
a layer of Lingulae and black carbonaceous spots. It was 
regarded as of Downtonian age. 
Exposures of Ludlow beds are scarce farther to the north. 
To the south of the railway near Blaisdon comes the Wenlock 
Limestone of Flaxley Park. The sharp ridge which runs for 
about half a mile in a north and south direction just to the east
