Extract

While spending a few days in the Autumn at Tramore, I chanced to meet with a well-marked example of recent alteration of shore-level; and as on subsequent examination I find it only partially noticed on the Six-inch Map, and not referred to at all on the published One-inch Sheet, or in the Memoir of the Geological Survey of the District, I thought of laying a short note on the subject before this Society.
