* I am inclined to think that not more than half this is undisturbed solid 
Boulder Clay. 
f These “Shales” are probably fissile Marls. 
In excavating Love Lane during 1892, it was found that the 
Boulder Clay was overlaid by fluviatile deposits of from 7ft. 
to 8ft. in thickness, the overlying soil was from 3ft. to 4ft. 
thick. Human bones were discovered at 7ft. and again at 
lift, from the surface ; there were no remains of coffins found 
with the bones.
