Extract

In a previous paper the writer briefly alluded to the evidence, as known from the deep borings in East Kent, afforded by the Palæozoic and Mesozoic rocks, of the operation of a posthumous axis of unrest, probably of Charnian affinity. This conception receives further support from a study of the special characters exhibited by the Wealden of East Kent and the nature of the unconformity between these strata and the Mesozoic and Palæozoic rocks underlying them.
