II.—On Carboniferous Ostracoda from the Gayton Boring, Northamptonshire

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

The Carboniferous Ostracoda here described are from the deep Gayton Boring, near Northampton. Hand-specimens of the rock, obtained by H. J. Eunson, Esq., F.G.S., were given to us by R. Etheridge, Esq., F.R.S., some months ago; and Mr. Eunson kindly gave us another piece lately.

To explain the situation of the bore, as well as the position of the Carboniferous strata in it, we quote as follows from Mr. H. J. Eunson's paper “On the Palaeozoic Eocks beneath Northampton,” in the Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc. vol. xl. 1884, p. 485, etc.:

“The second trial took place near the village of Gayton, five miles south-west of Northampton, not far from the Banbury-lane crossing of the L. and N.-W. Eailway, about two miles north-west of Blisworth Station (see Ordnance Map 52 S.W.).
