ivorth inspection, as I have no doubt that many valuable 
remains might be obtained for the benefit of science 
ind the increase of our knowledge of the inhabitants 
:>f these old seas, by a persevering search. 
Walk No. X. 
On the sides of a green path through the wood, (the 
Old Wigmore Road), the Upper Ludlow rock is in 
many places exposed full of fossils, especially at the 
Lower end, where there is a- large quarry containing 
| some very fine Orthoceratites. There is a small section 
of Aymestry limestone at the very top of the road, from 
whence may be procured several species of corals, also 
Pentamerus Knightii and many other shells. 
About a mile and a half due west from Ludlow, on 
the Downton Castle road, close by a small stream that 
runs from the Fountain, is a large Upper Ludlow quarry, 
often worked for road metal, and consequently there is 
! generally a quantity of weathered stone in the bottom. 
This is my favourite locality for procuring fossils 
peculiar to this formation; many scarce ones also occur 
here in a very perfect state oU preservation. I find 
remains of Ceratiocaris most abundant here ; portions of 
Pterygotus are also plentiful; the Orthoceratites are here 
of a large size, and I have found one or two heads of 
the scarce Limuloides. Mr. Lightbody procured here 
a small portion of Pteraspis Ludensis . The following 
may be obtained with a little trouble, along with very 
many others :— Serpulites longissimus , Trachyderma 
coriacea , Piscina striata and rugata , Orthis lunata and 
elegantula , Cardiola interrupta , Orthonota impressa , 
Goniophora cymbceformis , Cyclonema corallii , and Spi - 
rorbis Lewisii. I would strongly recommend this place 
' to those wishing to procure a general series of Upper 
j Ludlow fossils.
