Extract

IMMEDIATELY east of Bloxham Station is a cutting through the Marlstone and basement beds of the Upper Lias. The Liassic deposits are now for the most part hidden by vegetation, but when the line was made and for some years subsequently large numbers of fossils—principally ammonites—were collected from them. Several geologists have published particulars concerning the section. The writer has in his collection a number of ammonites from here, which have been examined by Dr. A. E. Trueman. The object of this communication is to place on record the result of his examination.
