the bottom, which makes it a very good place for 
searching for them. Here a species of Spongarium is 
abundant, also the common Upper Ludlow coral 
Stenopora fibrosa , and the worm tubes Serpulites longis- 
simus and Trachyderma coriacia , the shells Goniophora 
cymbceformis , Crania implicata , Chonetes lata> Orthonota 
amygdalina , Orthis elegantula , and several species of 
Orthoceratites ; one or two specimens of the rare 
Ascoceras Barrandii have also been found at this place. 
On the south side of Oakly Park, just above Hill

beds that lie underneath the cornstones of the Old Red 
sandstone, which beds contain a small Cephalaspis , 
probably Cephalaspis Lyellii. This is the only place I 
know of where these red marly beds have yielded any 
organic remains.

facing the Paper Mills, the Tin Mill beds or their equiv¬ 
alents are exposed, but probably occupying a higher 
horizon than those in the railroad cutting. From the 
hard grey micaceous grit-band, full of carbonaceous 
markings, have been procured Cephalaspis Murchisonii , 
a very large species of Lingula cornea , and large Onchus 
spines . 
Near to Saltmore is a very prolific Upper Ludlow 
quarry, from it I have collected several fragments of 
Pterygotus , and most of the usual fossils of this 
formation. 
In the Old Load, at the back of Huck’s Barn, the 
Upper Ludlow rock is exposed, but is not very pro¬ 
ductive. Here grows luxuriantly the pretty fern, 
Asplenium Adiantum-Nigrum. In a small quarry in 
Ludford Park, on the site of the old turnpike road,
