At Portrush in the extreme north of Antrim another 
interesting deposit is found composed entirely of shells 
and shelly sand, and it is remarkable for the number of 
species it has afforded to collectors. 
It is situated in the wave worn clefts of the rocks near 
the inlet called Port Scaddan and is about 10 feet above 
high water. 
The road near the shore goes over a portion of the 
deposit and it is dug out in shallow pits and used for garden 
walks instead of gravel
