About three-quarters of a mile further south the Bntley River 
has cut into the Coralline Crag hill, so as to make a low cliff near 
Ferry Cottages. The section thus exposed is not good, though 
it shows shelly sands reaching to about 9 feet above the water- 
level. The well-known ‘‘Corner Pit’' lies in the field above, 
but the name does not appear in the 1-inch Ordnance Map. This 
pit is occasionally opened for the purpose of obtaining Coralline 
Crag fossils,' which are perhaps here found more abundantly, 
better preserved, and of greater variety than in any other section 
of equal extent. As the pit is only worked far the fossils, it is 
generally ploughed over in the summer time, and can very 
seldom be examined. The deposit consists of shelly sand, referred 
by Prof. Prestwich to his division d. Dr. S. P. Woodward, in 
1863, spent a good deal of time here, and the following list of 
fossils then collected has been communicated, like the last, by his 
son, Mr. H. B. Woodward, who assisted him. The pit is described 
as very rich in species, univalves and bivalves.
