Abstract/NotesThe object of this communication is to record some recently-made notes on the Rhætic beds of the neighbourhood of Charfield.In 1876 Mr. H. B. Woodward, F. R. S., wrote: “Turning to the esearpment of Penarth beds between Tites Point and Wickwar, we find them exposed in many places. Long ago Sir Roderick Murchison stated that ‘passages from the Lias into the underlying New Red Sandstone can be observed in the sides of Whitecliff Park Hills, south of Berkeley; but the clearest and best instances are to the east of Wickwar, near Sturt Bridge, on the sides of the new road ascending to Wotton.'” This is all that has been written on the area now under consideration. As is well known, the junction of the Rhætic and Keuper Series is usually marked by a low but distinct escarpment. Between Tites Point and Berkeley Road Station this physical feature is not pronounced, but becomes gradually more prominent to the south of the Junction.
