IV.—On a Boring at Marston near Devizes

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

This boring, though confined to the Kimeridge Clay, is of some interest, partly because it has proved the thickness of that clay to be much greater than it was supposed to be in this part of Wiltshire, and partly because it has yielded a species of Aporrhais or Harpagodes which has not previously been found in England.
