V.—Notes on some Coastal Features in Co. Waterford

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

The occurrence of ‘submerged forests’ on the coast of co. Waterford has long been known, though no mention of them was made in the Survey Memoir published in 1865. The more recent discovery of pre-glacial beaches and raised wave-cut rock-platforms along the south coast of Ireland between Baltimore and Carnsore Point has thrown still further light on Post-Tertiary movements of the land-margin; and accordingly some new observations on these phenomena in a hitherto unmarked locality may be of interest.
